 | | Eastwood's long tailed seps (Tetradactylus eastwoodii), a small lizard known only from two specimens collected in open montane grassland at Woodbush over seventy-five years ago is believed to be extinct. | | | The fate of Acontophiops lineatus (Woodbush legless skink) and Afroedura pondolia mulitiporis (Methuen's day gecko) also seem uncertain. | | | There is only one known nest in Limpopo of the critically endangered blue swallow (Hirundo atrocaerulea). |

| | IngentaConnect A molecular phylogeny for the South African limbless lizard taxa ... |
| | In the present study, relationships among three generaAcontias, Acontophiops, and Typhlosaurus, that comprise the South African limbless lizard subfamily Acontinae, were assessed with partial sequences of the 16S rRNA mitochondrial DNA gene. | | | Maximum likelihood and maximum parsimony analyses of the 16S rRNA mtDNA data revealed that within this subfamily, Typhlosaurus is basal while Acontophiops andAcontias are sister taxa. | | | In addition, relationships within Acontias were further investigated using sequence data from the cytochrome oxidase I gene (COI). |
