It is one of my most used references. You can order it through Kalahari for about R260. Sometimes available in Exclusive Books or CNA.

Thank you Johan, the Field Guide to Insects of South Africa seems like a good investment! The description rings true. I found it in an area where there must be much decaying snails and rotten wood!
