any good maps available for South American river systems?

[cootwarm]

Does anyone know of any good maps that detail the rivers systems in South America? At the moment I'm most interested the river systems in Peru as it seems to be where most of the wild caught apistos are coming from recently.

I see many different localities listed. I've tried searching the web using google, but find maps that only show like 3 to 5 different rivers. I figure that many of these locations are probably tributaries of these main rivers, but the maps I've found so far aren't detailed enough. It would be interesting to learn where these wild caught species are collected in comparison to each other.

Thanks,
Michael

I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for, but I have this article saved for the drainage maps and assorted info.

If you're looking for colour maps, I remember seeing one, I thought it was on this site but I'll look around.

I have some maps at a scale of 1:4,000,000 that have most of the river systems listed as apisto collecting sites on them. At this scale they don't show most of the smaller streams, however. My most used maps are "Amazon Basin" & "South America North West" by International Travel Maps (Vancouver, British Colombia, Canada): http://www.nas.com/~travelmaps . These maps can usually be found at most map & book stores.
