Distribution. Nigeria ( Edo State, Delta State, Rivers State) ( Powell 1976 ; Victor & Ogbeibu 1985 ; Pereira 1997 ; Ogbeibu & Oribhabor 2002 ; Ikomi et al . 2005 ; Olomukoro 2009 ; Olomukoro & Dirisu 2014 ; present study) ( Fig. 62B , yellow circles). Description. Powell (1976: 895, figs. 5–7) . The material from Rumokoroshe ( Rivers State, Nigeria ) is illustrated in Figs. 3–4 . Remarks. The material from Rivers State (USNM 171376), studied by Pereira (1997) , represents the first record of E. edingtonae outside of Edo and Delta states where the species has been often reported ( Fig. 62B , yellow circles). The specimens match well the description and illustrations in Powell (1976) (see also Figs. 3 , 4 ). The genus Euryrhynchina was believed to be monotypic until recently when a second species was described ( De Grave et al . 2017 ). For the morphological differences between the two species, see remarks under E. puteola .
