Abstract:
1. The distribution of R. evertsi is given in terms of political Divisions, as well
as in terms of Vegetational coverage.
2. R. evertsi is seen to be present in all forest, parkland and grass land areas
with a rainfall above 10 inches. It is absent from all Karroo areas below 10 inches; it appears
to maintain a precarious footing in mixed Karroo scrub and grass areas with a rainfall
between 10-15 inches.
3. It shows no essential periodicity in its activities.
4. It is not controlled by dipping alone; handdressing with dipping is
essential for its suppression.
