Anajás River

The Moções River (Portuguese: Rio Moções) is a river of Marajó, which itself is an island in the Amazon Delta. It is located in the state Pará in northern Brazil.[1] Its source is in the swamp areas called mondongos that are normally flooded during the wet season.[2] It is the main tributary of the Anajás River on its right bank. It joins the Anajás opposite the main town along the river, which is also called Anajás.[3]
