Pipa pipa (Linnaeus, 1758) presents the largest range within its genus, occurring in Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, Surinam, and French Guyana (Lima et al. 2005). This species occurs typically in Amazonian tropical rainforest, always in slow flowing watercourses, backwater of streams, ponds, and pools in flooded forest, where it hides under submerged litter (Lima et al. 2005).
