Type locality of the holotype of Pseudobarbus verloreni: 'South Africa: Western Cape Province: from the Verlorenvlei River, 20 m upstream from railway at the Het Kruis bridge on R365' (Ref. 98574). Known from the Verlorenvlei River (Ref. 98574). Also collected in 1986 from Langvlei River, but it is likely to have been extirpated from that river (Ref. 98574). The species was possibly widespread throughout the Verlorenvlei and Langvlei River systems in the past, but numbers likely declined due to predation and competition from introduced fish species and habitat degradation (Ref. 98574). |
