The present geological period has more species than any other, yet the current rate of extinction of species is greater now than at any time in the past. Ecosystems and communities are being degraded and destroyed, and species are being driven to extinction. The species that persist are losing genetic variation as the number of individuals in populations shrinks, unique populations and subspecies are destroyed, and remaining populations become increasingly isolated from one another. The cause of this loss of biological diversity at all levels is the range of human activity that alters and destroys natural habitats to suit human needs.” (Primack, 2002). CapeNature launched its State of Biodiversity Programme (SoBP) to assess and monitor the state of biodiversity in the Western Cape in 1999. This programme delivered its first report in 2002 and these reports are updated every five years. The current report (2007) reports on the changes to the state of vertebrate biodiversity and land under conservation usage.

Taxonomic Status of Cobras of the Genus Naja Laurenti (Serpentes: Elapidae)
Zootaxa 2236: 26–36 (2009) ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) www.mapress.com/zootaxa/ Article ZOOTAXA Copyright © 2009 · Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) In praise of subgenera: taxonomic status of cobras of the genus Naja Laurenti (Serpentes: Elapidae) VAN WALLACH1, 4, WOLFGANG WÜSTER2 & DONALD G. BROADLEY3 1Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University, Cambridge MA 02138, USA. E-mail: [email protected] 2School of Biological Sciences, Bangor University, Bangor LL57 2UW, UK. E-mail: [email protected] 3Biodiversity Foundation for Africa, P.O. Box FM 730, Famona, Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. E-mail: [email protected] 4corresponding author Abstract The genus Naja Laurenti, 1768, is partitioned into four subgenera. The typical form is restricted to 11 Asian species. The name Uraeus Wagler, 1830, is revived for a group of four non-spitting cobras inhabiting savannas and open formations of Africa and Arabia, while Boulengerina Dollo, 1886, is applied to four non-spitting African species of forest cobras, including terrestrial, aquatic and semi-fossorial forms. A new subgenus is erected for seven species of African spitting cobras. We recommend the subgenus rank as a way of maximising the phylogenetic information content of classifications while retaining nomenclatural stability. Key words: Naja, Uraeus, Boulengerina, Afronaja subgen. nov., taxonomy, Africa, Asia Introduction The scientific nomenclature of life serves the key function of providing labels for the cataloguing of the Earth’s biodiversity and thus for information retrieval. In order to make a system of classification predictive, it is generally agreed that a classification should reflect the current state of knowledge about the evolutionary relationships within a group, which, in the case of a nested, hierarchical system of nomenclature, means recognizing only monophyletic groups as named taxa.

Hemachatus Haemachatus
Hemachatus haemachatus The , also called rinkhals (Hemachatus haemachatus) the ringhals or ring-necked spitting cobra, is a species of venomous elapid found in parts of southern Africa. It is not a true cobra in that it does not belong to the genusNaja, but instead belongs to the monotypic genus Hemachatus. While rinkhals bear a great resemblance to true cobras they also possess some remarkable differences from these, resulting in their placement outside the genus Naja.[3] Scientific Classification Kingdom: Anamalia Description Phylum: Cordata Coloration varies throughout its distribution area, but a Class: Reptilia characteristic of the species is the belly is dark with one or two Order: Squamata light-coloured crossbands on the throat. Their average length is [3] Suborder: Serpentes 90–110 cm. Some individuals may have a mostly black body, Family: Viperidae while others are striped. Rinkhals scales are distinct from those Geunus Hemachatus of true cobras in that they are ridged and keel-like. Species: H.Heamachatus Scale Pattern [4] Scalation: Binomial Name [5] Hemachatus haemachatus • dorsal scales are keeled (Bonnaterre, 1790) • 17–19 rows of dorsal scales at midbody • 116–150 ventral scales • anal plate is entire Synonyms • 30–47 subcaudal scales, paired • 7 upper labial scales • Coluber haemachates • upper labials 3 and 4 entering the eye Bonnaterre, 1790 • 1 preocular (rarely up to 3) • Vipera haemachates • 3 postoculars - Latreille, 1802 • 8–9 lower labials • Sepedon haemachates - Merrem, 1820 • Naja haemachates Distribution - Schlegel, 1837 • Aspidelaps haemachates - Jan, 1863 A South African rinkhals with hood spread • Sepedon hæmachates - Boulenger, 1896 This species is found in the Southern Cape province of South Africa, northeast through the Free • Hemachatus haemachatus State, Lesotho, Transkei, Kwazulu Natal, South Africa, - Stejneger, 1936[1][2] Western Swaziland, Mpumalanga and parts of Gauteng, South Africa.

Snouted Cobra Naja Annulifera OTHER NAMES Previously Known As the Egyptian Cobra Wipneuskobra (A) Bosveldkapel (A)
Snouted Cobra Naja annulifera OTHER NAMES Previously known as the Egyptian Cobra Wipneuskobra (A) Bosveldkapel (A) Length: Adults average 1,2–1,8 m but may reach, or exceed, 2,5 m. Scale count: Midbody scales are in 19 rows (rarely 21) with 175–203 ventrals. There are 51–65 paired subcaudals and the anal shield is entire. There are 7 (sometimes 8) upper labials that do not enter the eye, and 8 or 9 (rarely 10) lower labials, as well as 1 preocular (sometimes 2) and 2 (sometimes 1 or 3) postoculars. Temporals are variable, 1 + 2 or 1 + 3. Colour: Above, yellowish to greyish brown, dark brown or blue-black. Below, yellow with darker mottles. A banded phase occurs throughout the range and is blue-black with 7–11 yellow to yellow- brown crossbars, the lighter bands being half the width of the darker bands. The latter colour phase is more common in males. Below, yellow mottled with black. A darker throat band is present and is usually more conspicuous in juveniles. Preferred habitat: Arid and moist savanna; common in lowveld and bushveld areas. Habits: One of Africa’s largest cobras, it often occupies a permanent home in a termite mound where it will reside for years if not disturbed. It is active at night, foraging for food from dusk onwards, often venturing into poultry runs. It likes to bask in the morning sun, usually near its retreat into which it will withdraw if disturbed. It is not an aggressive snake, but will assume a formidable posture if cornered.
