FOREWORD

The Constitution of Kenya promulgated in 2010 provides for the establishment of a two-tiered government in a devolved system of governance. Devolution has created County Governments with distinct functions and responsibilities for the development of Counties. The Taita Taveta second-generation County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP-II) 2018-2022 was generated in line with legal requirements such as the County Government Act, 2012 and the Public Finance Management Act that stipulate that counties should develop five-year development plans for effective, efficient and prudent use of public resources.

The second-generation Taita Taveta County Integrated Development Plan 2018-22 was successfully prepared under the executive stewardship of the County Executive Committee Members in close collaboration with departmental Sector Working Groups (SWGs), Civil Society Organizations, Community-based groups and the private sector.

The preparation of this CIDP adopted a consultative approach with greater emphasis on public

participation in order to capture the peoples’ priority needs and ownership of the county

development programmes. Equally important to note is that, this CIDP has also been aligned to national plans, inclusive of Kenya Vision 2030, its Medium Term Plans and National Spatial Plans as well as international commitments such as the Sustainable Development Goals to achieve the general economic growth of the country.

The purpose of this CIDP is to provide reference for the County Government, Sectors and other stakeholders in implementing the county policies, projects and programmes effectively. It is therefore my expectation that it will enhance the realization of the objectives of the county to be competitive and reliable.

I wish to acknowledge the role played by the CEC Finance and Economic Planning, the CIDP- II secretariat, sector working groups and other stakeholders – inclusive of the county citizens themselves - for their immense contribution to the generation of this development plan.

H.E. Granton Graham Samboja - Governor, Taita Taveta County

    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 .

Voor de toepassing van geografische informatiesystemen op bedrijfsniveau in reliefrijke gebieden is het essentieel om programmatuur te ontwikkelen die identificatie van de geologische en geomorfologische positie van een gekozen punt mogelijk maakt. 4.

    THE PEARCE- SELLARDS Series NUMBER 24 A New Species of Bufo (Anura: Bufonidae) From Africa’s Dry Savannas by Mills Tandy and Jocelyn Tandy Department of Zoology, University of Texas Ronalda Keith American Museum of Natural History, New York Alex Duff-MacKay National Museum, Nairobi DECEMBER 1976 TEXAS MEMORIAL MUSEUM/2400 TRINITY/AUSTIN, TEXAS W. W. NEWCOMB, DIRECTOR A New Species of Bufo (Anura: Bufonidae) From Africa's Dry Savannas by MILLS TANDY and JOCELYN TANDY Department of Zoology, University of Texas RONALDA KEITH American Museum of Natural History, New York ALEX DUFF-MacKAY National Museum, Nairobi INTRODUCTION Recent field studies including work on acoustic behavior have revealed a new species of Bufo belonging to the Bufo regularis group. This species is similar morphologically to several other species of the B. regularis complex, but its mating call is distinctive. On the basis of this behavior, the species was recognized by Duff-MacKay during 1951-71 and Keith during 1960-63 as different from sympatric species in eastern Africa. Mills Tandy also noticed that the voice of this species differed from those of other toads during field work in Kenya in 1965. In 1970, the Tandys acoustically recorded the species as far west as Chad. Later, Amiet found it in northern Cameroun (Amiet, 1973). Study of museum collections indicates that the species extends west to Senegal and at least as far south as Tanzania in dry savanna and desert regions. It may occur in southwestern Angola. The nomenclature of the new species has been in doubt. Keith (1968) first thought that it was Bufo gutturalis Power.

I never miss an opportunity to accompany Angela and the family to Tsavo whenever they have reason to go there for that is where my heart sings. I derive immense pleasure and joy from the news of every new baby born to our Ex Orphans now living wild, which now number 23 in all, with others due and on the way.
