has one of the recurring location typographical errors, probably from the imported database. We map it to Ethiopia.

Cheers, Eric

It's a case of changing

Bahia State, Lençóis, rio Paraguaçu drainage, rio Santo Antônio at bridge on road BR-242, 12°2937'S, 41°1938''W, elevation 350 meters.

to

Bahia State, Lençóis, rio Paraguaçu drainage, rio Santo Antônio at bridge on road BR-242, 12°29'37"S, 41°19'38"W, elevation 350 meters.

Our latitude/longitude parser isn't smart enough to cope with the ’ not being a '. This has the effect of changing the co-ords as follows:

type_loc_lat was 12.616666666667 and now is -12.493611111111.
type_loc_long was 41.633333333333 and now is -41.327222222222.

In short, resolved.
