Summary
A large pond designed to incorporate a range of habitat types (biotopes) at the National Botanical Gardens (30º20’43”S, 29º36’25”E) in the city of Pietermaritzburg (KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa) was created as part of an ecological landscaping urban project for plant and insect conservation.
