Pristurus somalicus. Fantastic record and a first country record for Kenya. |

I accept it's a Pristurus, looks like some specimens of P. somalicus, but identifying it to species level and claiming it as a first country record on the basis of a blurry photo is unjustified. A difficult genus even with a key and a specimen, and nearest somalicus records are 700 km east. |

Very possibly an undescribed form (Pietersen, Spawls & Mazuch pers. comm. March 2023). |
