Plate 10.14 (Fig. 10.14 on page 281) Map of South Africa's Cape Floristic Region showing site irreplaceability values for
achieving a range of conservation targets in the 20-year conservation plan for the region. Irreplaceability is a measure,
varying from zero to one, which indicates the relative importance of an area for the achievement of regional conservation
targets. Existing reserves are shown in blue. (After Cowling et al., 2003.)
