OBITUARY Many visitors to East Africa equate East Africa with large mammal assemblages — which indeed are the largest and most diverse such assemblages worldwide. Yet, East Africa also contains a wide diversity of ‘non-charismatic’ species many of which have highly restricted geographic distributions. Over the last century, few individuals have contributed more to our understanding about the ecology, biogeography, and natural history of small animal biodiversity in East Africa than Kim Howell. Kim Monroe Howell was born in Syracuse, New York on 15 September 1945. He was raised in Virginia and attended the Waynesboro High School. He then went to Cornell University to study for his BSc in Vertebrate Zoology, graduating in 1967. Kim had a great interest in Africa, and so took the opportunity of taking up a teaching position in Zambia in July 1967, teaching in a school for political refugees. A year later, in July 1968, he moved to teach in another school in Dar es Salaam, and remained in Tanzania for the rest of his life. Once in Dar es Salaam, Kim got to know and worked together with the staff at the Department of Zoology and Marine Biology in the Faculty of Science
