Fig 1. Map of southern Africa indicating the GMPA region, Amblysomus species distributions and sampling sites.
The extent of the GMPA (solid grey line) and its transitional extensions (broken grey lines) [14]. Samples were chosen to be representative of the known distribution ranges of all Amblysomus species [18], and subspecies within A. hottentotus [19]. Sampling was more intensive along the KwaZulu-Natal coast where the presence of cryptic taxa was expected (inset). See S1 Table for locality codes.
