Renosterveld : ウィキペディア英語版 | Renosterveld
Renosterveld is a term used for one of the major plant communities and vegetation types of the Cape Floristic Region (Cape Floral Kingdom) which is located in southwestern and southeastern South Africa, in southernmost Africa. It is an ecoregion of the Mediterranean forests, woodlands, and scrub Biome. ==Etymology==
Renosterveld directly translated in the Afrikaans language means "rhinoceros-field", a possible reference to the high number of rhinoceroses seen by the Afrikaner settlers at the time. It may also derive its name from the Renosterbos ("Rhinoceros Bush - ''Elytropappus rhinocerotis''), which is a common species of shrub found here. The dull grey colour of Renosterbos is similar to the colour of a rhino's hide.
