The National Minister is the only person entitled to issue regulations ito the Act.

What provincial legislation are you referring to? Transvaal? Where would that be?

These are amendments to, and should be read with the National Biodiversity Act of 2004. It doesn't replace the whole document to only refer to the two species.

I see what you mean. Still need explanation to this whole thing.

I have gotten an explanation from nat con already. TOPS is a national regulation. It will protect C.paulseni and I.mira.
The old Transvaal regulation still protects Harpactira, Ceratogyrus and Pterinochilus (Or and Genera that have been renamed from those Genera, eg. Augacephalus, Idiothele) in the relevant provinces.
