Habitat. Sandy and soft loamy soils in Mountain Fynbos, Grassy Fynbos, and Renosterveld, and Afro-montane forest and moist savanna along southern Cape coast at elevations of ¢.10-1200 m. The Fynbos Golden Mole coexists with the Cape Golden Mole in Stellenbosch and Paarl, although it favors richer and wetter soils. It coexists with Duthie’s Golden Mole (

) along southern Cape coast but might select different microhabitats, with the Fynbos Golden Mole preferring forest fringes and associated fynbos and Duthie’s Golden Mole preferring deeper forest. In its southern distribution, the Fynbos Golden Mole appears to be confined to higher elevation, montane fynbos habitats. It thrives in gardens, cultivated lands, golf courses, and livestock paddocks and is also present in exotic plantations, apparently at lower densities.
