Georef. RemarksThe locality description is too vague, I plotted the locality in the Tocantins river near the town of Peixe as an approximate. The webpage getamap.net mentioned another possible location, te Rio Peixe or Rio do Carmo located at about 175 Km North of the town of Peixe in the coordinates -10.6833 and -48.45
