African slender-snouted crocodile  (Mecistops cataphractus)

Occurs in the equatorial rainforest belt of Central and West Africa; from southern Mauritania, east to the Central African Republic and south to Angola and Tanzania (5).

The African slender-snouted crocodile inhabits rivers, marshes, lakes and pools within rainforests (6). While habitat data are not exhaustive, the slender-snouted crocodile is apparently confined to freshwater and typically prefers larger, swift-flowing streams (7).
