With the addition of Sharpe's Starling, the total number of species that have been recorded on the Mafingas is now 144 (see Leonard et al. 2001). There are surely more interesting discoveries waiting to be made in the Mafinga Mountains and those willing to meet the challenge of exploring them will also be richly rewarded with some of Zambia's finest scenery.
