Description:Manda Bay is located in the Lamu Archipelago, on the northern coast of Kenya. It is part of the Indian Ocean, home to diverse marine species. This bibliography focuses on literature regarding the presence of Endangered Species Act (ESA) listed species in Kenya’s Manda Bay, Lamu Archipelago, and Kiunga Marine National Reserve. Although articles geographically related to the Kenyan coast are included, those that were specifically about species in Mombasa, the Tana River Delta, or the Kisite-Mpunguti Marine National Park were excluded. The literature review is intended as a reference resource for ESA staff of NOAA Fisheries’ Office of Protected Resources, who will be writing an ESA consultation document, a biological opinion, for a company that is planning development of the Lamu Port Offshore Energy Development Park. The timeframe of the articles range from 1995 – 2020. ESA-listed species that may be in the area include coral, fish, sea turtles, and marine mammals. Dugongs were not included as they are under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The bibliography is divided into five sections: corals, fish, sea turtles, marine mammals, and general.
