Journal of the East Africa Natural History Society and National Museum
JOURNAL OF THE EAST AFRICA NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY AND NATIONAL MUSEUM 15 October, 1978 Vol. 31 No. 167 A CHECKLIST OF mE SNAKES OF KENYA Stephen Spawls 35 WQodland Rise, Muswell Hill, London NIO, England ABSTRACT Loveridge (1957) lists 161 species and subspecies of snake from East Mrica. Eighty-nine of these belonging to some 41 genera were recorded from Kenya. The new list contains some 106 forms of 46 genera. - Three full species have been deleted from Loveridge's original checklist. Typhlops b. blanfordii has been synonymised with Typhlops I. lineolatus, Typhlops kaimosae has been synonymised with Typhlops angolensis (Roux-Esteve 1974) and Co/uber citeroii has been synonymised with Meizodon semiornatus (Lanza 1963). Of the 20 forms added to the list, 12 are forms collected for the first time in Kenya but occurring outside its political boundaries and one, Atheris desaixi is a new species, the holotype and paratypes being collected within Kenya. There has also been a large number of changes amongst the 89 original species as a result of revisionary systematic studies. This accounts for the other additions to the list. INTRODUCTION The most recent checklist dealing with the snakes of Kenya is Loveridge (1957). Since that date there has been a significant number of developments in the Kenyan herpetological field. This paper intends to update the nomenclature in the part of the checklist that concerns the snakes of Kenya and to extend the list to include all the species now known to occur within the political boundaries of Kenya. It also provides the range of each species within Kenya with specific locality records . -
Hydraulic Practice in Hydrology
River Conveyance Analysis in a Data Sparse and a Data Rich Region: Case Studies in Kenya and Switzerland Master’s Thesis Faculty of Science University of Bern presented by Danielle Huser 2016 Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Rolf Weingartner Institute of Geography and Oeschger Centre for Climate Change Research Co-Supervisor: Dr. Andreas Zischg Institute of Geography and Oeschger Centre for Climate Change Research Advisor: Dr. Hanspeter Liniger Institute of Geography i Abstract This master thesis addresses two cases studies with rather different initial condition. First, it aims to establish stage discharge relations in data-sparse regions in the lower Ewaso Ng’rio Basin in Kenya, and secondly, it proceeds to a weak point analysis along the main rivers of the Bernese Oberland in Switzerland. Regardless of their geographical distance, for both re- gions with their respective issues a hydrodynamic 1D simulations were conducted with the software Basement, providing simulations of river flow based on measured cross sections. In arid regions water scarcity is becoming a threat to more and more people. The Ewaso Ng’rio Basin (64 000 km2), located around the Mount Kenya is subjected to increasing pres- sure on water resources because of rising demands for irrigation, domestic purposes, and livestock in the upper basin. In the lower basin, users suffer from even more pronounced water scarcity, because they have secondary access to the rivers. Research on hydrological processes is limited since gauging stations (RGS) were missing up to this study. In order to overcome that limitation, this study aims to establish stage-discharge relations for four sites in the lower Ewaso Ng’iro Basin by relying on newly installed RGS providing water level data. -

In an urbanized world, countries are apt to be judged according to their degree of urbanization. A glance at the map shows that the under-developed countries are also, by and large, rural. Cities have long existed in Africa, of course. From the ancient trade and cultural centers of Carthage and Alexandria to the mediaeval sultanates of East Africa, urban life has long existed in some degree or another. Yet none of these cities changed significantly the rural character of the African hinterland. Today the city needs to be more than the occasional market place, the seat of political authority, and a haven for the literati. It remains these of course, but it is much more. It must be the industrial and economic wellspring of a large area, perhaps of a nation. The city has become the concomitant of industrialization and industrialization the concomitant 1 2 of the revolution of rising expectations. African cities today are largely the products of colonial enterprise but are equally the measure of their country's progress. The city is witness everywhere to the acute personal, familial, and social upheavals of society in the process of urbanization. -
Historical Background: Early Exploration in the East African Rift--The Gregory Rift Valley
Downloaded from http://sp.lyellcollection.org/ by guest on September 26, 2021 SIR PETER KENT Historical background: Early exploration in the East African Rift--The Gregory Rift Valley In relation to modern lines of communication it seems surprising that the Gregory Rift Valley was the last part of the system to become known. Much of the earlier exploration had however been centred on the problem of the sources of the Nile, and in consequence the Western or Albertine Rift was explored by Samuel Baker as early as 1862/63 (Baker 1866). Additionally there was a strong tendency to use the convenient base at Zanzibar Island for journeys inland by the Arab slave trading routes from Pangani and Bagamoyo; these led to the Tanganyika Rift and Nyasaland rather than to the area of modern Kenya. The first penetrations into the Gregory Rift area were in I883; Joseph Thomson made an extensive journey into Central Kenya which he described in his book of 1887, 'Through Masai Land' which had as a subtitle, 'a journey of exploration among the snowclad volcanic mountains and strange tribes of Eastern Equatorial Africa--being the narrative of the Royal Geographical Society's Expedition to Mount Kenya and Lake Victoria Nyanza i883-84'. In his classic journey Thomson practically encircled the lower slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro and reached the Gregory Rift wall near the Ngong Hills. He then went north to Lake Baringo and westwards to Lake Victoria, before returning to his starting point at Mombasa. His observations on the geology were of good standard for the time. -

Investigation of Silali Basin As an Extra-Terrestrial Impact Crater (ETIC) Using Remote Sensing
Journal of Environment and Earth Science www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-3216 (Paper) ISSN 2225-0948 (Online) Vol.6, No.2, 2016 Investigation of Silali Basin as an Extra-Terrestrial Impact Crater (ETIC) Using Remote Sensing Kipkiror Loice Jepkemboi 1*, Prof. Ucakuwun Elijah 2 & Prof. Fatuma Daudi 2 1 School of Arts and Social Science, University of Kabianga, P.O. Box 2030-20200, Kericho, Kenya 2 School of Environmental Studies, University of Eldoret, P.O. Box 1125-30100, Eldoret, Kenya Our gratitude goes to the University of Kabianga for partially funding this research study, besides keeping a track of it Abstract For years, extra-terrestrial impact cratering was esoteric. However, impacts have become very important, mainly because they have been identified as the likely immediate cause of dinosaur extinction. Impact cratering by extra-terrestrial bodies including asteroids comets and meteorites is an important geologic process, not only for the minerals that it forms, but also because of the knowledge that it is dangerous to mankind and life on earth. There is also the fact that extra-terrestrial impact crater building is a continuous process that may be going on even this very minute, somewhere in the universe. Consequently, the earth, just like other members of the solar system is targeted by extra-terrestrial falling objects. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of impact cratering on Kenya’s environment, with focus on Silali basin. Silali basin is a depression that is found to the north of Lake Baringo; around Kapedo town. It is suspected to be an Extra –Terrestrial Impact Crater (ETIC). -

Turning Conflict Into Coexistence: Cross-Cutting Ties and Institutions in the Agro-Pastoral Borderlands of Lake Naivasha Basin, Kenya
Turning conflict into coexistence: cross-cutting ties and institutions in the agro-pastoral borderlands of Lake Naivasha basin, Kenya Inaugural dissertation to complete the doctorate from the Faculty of Arts and Humanities of the University of Cologne in the subject, Social and Cultural Anthropology presented by Eric Mutisya Kioko born on 03.05.1983 in Machakos, Kenya Cologne, November 2016 Abstract The Maasai/Kikuyu agro-pastoral borderlands of Maiella and Enoosupukia, located in the hinterlands of Lake Naivasha’s agro-industrial hub, are particularly notorious in the history of ethnicised violence in the Kenya’s Rift Valley. In October 1993, an organised assault perpetrated by hundreds of Maasai vigilantes, with the assistance of game wardens and administration police, killed more than 20 farmers of Kikuyu descent. Consequently, thousands of migrant farmers were violently evicted from Enoosupukia at the instigation of leading local politicians. Nowadays, however, intercommunity relations are surprisingly peaceful and the cooperative use of natural resources is the rule rather than the exception. There seems to be a form of reorganization. Violence seems to be contained and the local economy has since recovered. This does not mean that there is no conflict, but people seem to have the facility to solve them peacefully. How did formerly violent conflicts develop into peaceful relations? How did competition turn into cooperation, facilitating changing land use? This dissertation explores the value of cross-cutting ties and local institutions in peaceful relationships and the non-violent resolution of conflicts across previously violently contested community boundaries. It mainly relies on ethnographic data collected between 2014 and 2015. -
