Type locality. Swamp forest near Ogba River, about 8 km southwest of Benin city , Edo State ( Nigeria) .

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 View FIGURE 62 , yellow circles).

Description. Powell (1976: 895, figs. 5–7). The material from Rumokoroshe (Rivers State, Nigeria) is illustrated in Figs. 3–4 View FIGURE 3 View FIGURE4 .

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 View FIGURE 62 , yellow circles). The specimens match well the description and illustrations in Powell (1976) (see also Figs. 3 View FIGURE 3 , 4 View FIGURE4 ). 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 .
