This genus is known from Manaus, Amazonas State, in the Amazon river basin in Brazil and from Tobogan de la Selva, Amazonas State, in the Orinoco River drainage in Venezuela, and probably occur throughout the Southern Venezuela and Northern Brazil. There have also been literature reports of Phanoceroides spp. from as far west as Cordillera de Vilcabamba, Peru, but this record has not been confirmed by me (Acosta et al. 1998).
