    AFRICAN WATERBIRD CENSUS COVERAGE Participating Countries, April 1997 - March 1998 COUVERTURE GEOGRAPHIQUE DES DENOMBREMENTS D’OISEAUX D’EAU EN AFRIQUE Pays participants, avril 1997 - mars 1998 Participating countries, April 1997 - March 1998 Pays participants, avril 1997 - mars 1998 1 INTRODUCTION This report This publication comprises results and overviews of wetland surveys and waterbird counts between April 1997 and March 1998, centred around the key months of July 1997 and January 1998. It is the eighth annual African Waterbird Census (AfWC) report and, like previous editions, is presented in both English and French. Copyright has been waived to encourage reproduction of reports and the practical use of data for wetland and waterbird conservation. The report is divided into five sub-regional sections, within which national overviews are followed by tables summarising waterbird data at the sub-regional level and potential Ramsar sites found to meet Ramsar criterion 3(c). A sub-regional summary discussion of the region’s results and other related topics is also presented. The final section provides additional information related to the AfWC, notably updates from the Conventions, Waterbird Specialist Groups and partners, lists of National Coordinators and waterbirds, and a bibliography. This year the report has been produced in Africa for the first time in our West Africa office in Dakar, Senegal. We do sincerely apologise to regular readers for our abnormal delay, which has resulted principally from this phase of relocation and the launch of new African projects, some bringing direct support to the AfWC. Participation and Coverage A record number of 30 countries participated, including Gabon once more and The Congo for the first time.

  • Dakar Wolof and the Configuration of an Urban Identity
    Journal of African Cultural Studies, Volume 14, Number 2, December 2001, pp. 153-172 Dakar Wolof and the con guration of an urban identity FIONA MCLAUGHLIN (Department of Linguistics, University of Kansas) ABSTRACT The turbulent period of political and social unrest at the end of the 1980s and beginning of the 1990s in Senegal gave rise to the l movement in which the city of Dakar was recreated in the historical imagination of its youth. This essay argues that the movement coincided with the emergence of a self-conscious urban identity among the Dakar population, evidenced by a variety of artistic expression that focuses on and exalts the culture of the city. Central to the notion of an urban identity is the role of Dakar Wolof, a variety of the language that has signi cantly diverged from the more conservative dialects spoken in the rural areas, primarily by incorporating massive lexical borrowing from French. Dakar Wolof is portrayed in sustained written form for the rst time in two comics that appeared during this period: Boy Dakar by Ibou Fall and Aziz Bâ, and Ass et Oussou by Omar Diakité. This essay discusses the hybrid nature of Dakar Wolof and its depiction in written form in the two comics. Finally, it is argued that Dakar Wolof has had a profound effect on the notion of ethnicity in the Senegalese context and has contributed to the emergence of a de-ethnicized urban identity. 1. Introduction In February of 1988, presidential elections in Senegal failed to produce a change of regime from that of incumbent president Abdou Diouf to that of opposition leader Abdoulaye Wade, whose widely proclaimed campaign slogan had been or Change!1 A little more than a year later, in April of 1989, during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, unprecedented ethnic violence against the Moorish population in Senegal broke out in the streets of Dakar, the country’s capital, escalating into an international crisis that stopped just short of war.

  • Boubacar Barry Is One of the Leading Figures in West African Historiogra- Phy
    Boubacar Barry is one of the leading figures in West African historiogra- phy. His authoritative study of 400 years of Senegambian history is unri- valled in its detailed grasp of published and unpublished materials. Taking as its subject the vast area covering the Senegal and Gambia river basins, this book explores the changing dynamics of regional and Atlantic trade, clashes between traditional African and emergent Muslim authorities, the slave trade and the colonial system, and current obstacles to the integra- tion of the region's modern states. Professor Barry argues cogently for the integrity of the Senegambian region as a historical subject, and he forges a coherent narrative from the dismemberment and unification which char- acterized Senegambia's development from the fifteenth to the nineteenth century. This newly translated study is a vital tool in our understanding of West African history.

  • Casamance, 1885-2014
    MAPPING A NATION: SPACE, PLACE AND CULTURE IN THE CASAMANCE, 1885-2014 A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Mark William Deets August 2017 © 2017 Mark William Deets MAPPING A NATION: SPACE, PLACE AND CULTURE IN THE CASAMANCE, 1885-2014 Mark William Deets Cornell University This dissertation examines the interplay between impersonal, supposedly objective “space” and personal, familiar “place” in Senegal’s southern Casamance region since the start of the colonial era to determine the ways separatists tried to ascribe Casamançais identity to five social spaces as spatial icons of the nation. I devote a chapter to each of these five spaces, crucial to the separatist identity leading to the 1982 start of the Casamance conflict. Separatists tried to “discursively map” the nation in opposition to Senegal through these spatial icons, but ordinary Casamançais refused to imagine the Casamance in the same way as the separatists. While some corroborated the separatist imagining through these spaces, others contested or ignored it, revealing a second layer of counter-mapping apart from that of the separatists. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Mark W. Deets is a retired Marine aviator and a PhD candidate in African History at Cornell University. Deets began his doctoral studies after retiring from the Marine Corps in 2010. Before his military retirement, Deets taught History at the U.S. Naval Academy. Previous assignments include postings as the U.S. Defense and Marine Attaché to Senegal, The Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde, and Mauritania (2005-2007), as a White House Helicopter Aircraft Commander (HAC) and UH-1N “Huey” Operational Test Director with Marine Helicopter Squadron One (1999-2002), and as Assistant Operations Officer and UH-1N Weapons and Tactics Instructor with the “Stingers” of Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron 267 (1993-1998).

Short zoogeographical, and in some species taxonomical informa- tions are added. 70 species are recorded for the first time from Gambia. Stenosis schachti sp. nov. is described and compared with Stenosis sahelica KOCH, 1940. Pimelia cultri- margo SENAC, 1887 syn. nov. is regarded as a synonym of Pimelia senegalensis OLIVIER, 1795 and Phaleria senegalensis CHEVROLAT, 1878 syn. nov. as a synonym of Phaleria parallela WOLLASTON, 1867. Peltoides longulus inhirsutus PlC, 1916 syn. nov. has to be considered as a synonym of Peltoides capensis capensis FÄHRAEUS, 1870 stat. nov.
