Africa: known from coastal basins in Benin to Cameroon, Chad basin and Benue River system (Ref. 2801, 2940, 81282), Bagoé (Niger basin) (Ref. 2940, 81282). Also present in Ghana (Ref. 272), Côte d'Ivoire (Ref. 272, 2940, 81282), Senegal (Ref. 2940, 81282), Cameroon (Ref. 81282, 81639) and Equatorial Guinea (Ref. 81639). Report from the Chiloango (Ref. 120641) probably refers to E. trispilomimus.
