- Description: Online version of original print edition of the Special Publication of the J.L.B. Smith Institute of Ichthyology; No. 32 , Fishes were collected from 30 localities in the Sak River system, South Africa. Six species are known from the drainage, including two exotics. New distributional data were collected for Barbus aeneus, Barbus anoplus and Labeo umbratus. Additionally, the exotics Cyprinus carpio and Carassius auratus were added to the ichthyofauna known from the drainage. An annotated list of species either collected or historically known from the drainage is presented. Barbus aeneus (Burchell, 1822) is recognized as the valid name for the smallmouth yellowfish and a senior synonym of Barbus holubi Steindachner, 1894.

- Description: Online version of original print edition of the Special Publication of the J.L.B. Smith Institute of Ichthyology; No. 14 , This is in essence a checklist of the marine fishes occurring in the estuarine and coastal waters of southern Africa from the Kunene River in the west to Beira in the east. Deep sea fishes occurring below 200 metres or 100 fathoms are not included. The freshwater fishes from the Zambezi southwards will be published in Part 2. The scientific names, their spelling, authors and dates, have been carefully checked and brought into line with the most recent revisions available. However, the tremendous outpouring of scientific papers will make some scientific names obsolete even while this checklist is being printed. Also there will continue to be additions to the fauna and this, the first list to be published, must be regarded as a foundation on which subsequent lists can be based.
