Coeroeni River
The Coeroeni River is a river in South America. It arises in the Tumuc-Humac Mountains, which forms the drainage divide between Pará, Brazil, and Suriname; from there it flows northward. The river is fed by the Aramatau, Kutari and Sipaliwini River.[1] The Coeroeni goes on to form the border of the disputed Tigri Area[2] by Guyana and Suriname.[3] It eventually flows into the Courantyne River, which forms the international boundary between Guyana–Suriname.[1]
