“…Potamonautes senegalensis est répertoriée Données insuffisantes en raison de l'absence d'informations supplémentaires sur sa répartition, les exigences écologiques, la taille de la population et les tendances de la population(Cumberlidge & Daniels, 2020k). Il est préoccupant que cette espèce ait été collectée pour la dernière fois en 1960 et qu'aucun nouveau spécimen n'ait été découvert depuis lors.Potamonautes lipkei (DD)Cette espèce a une aire de répartition relativement restreinte et est connue à partir de moins de cinq spécimens provenant de deux localités du Parc national de NiokoloKoba, au Sénégal, collectés en 2010(Ď uriš & Koch, 2010). Dans le parc, il a été enregistré sur le versant du Mont Assirik à 151 m d'altitude et sur la digue du fleuve Gambie à Smenti (centre touristique) à 34 m d'altitude.…”
