Africa: from the lower Congo River just below Pool Malebo (=Stanley Pool) throughout the middle Congo River basin up to the Wagenia Falls, including Pool Malebo, middle Congo River, the Kasai drainage, lakes Mai-Ndombe and Tumba, the Ruki, Sangha and Aruwimi (Ref. 52346). Also in the Aruwimi and Lindi-Tshopo (Ref. 106290). Also reported from the Ubangi (Ref. 45441) but this drainage is explicitly excluded from the species' distribution area in Ref. 52346.
