El Corte River (in Spanish ''Río El Corte'', meaning "The Cut River") is the primary tributary of the Coatzacoalcos River, flowing through the Mexican states of Oaxaca and Veracruz to the Gulf of Mexico.〔 ==Geography== The river originates in the mountains to the east of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, a lowland corridor between the Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific Ocean. In its upper reaches it flows westward through the Zoque Forest (Selva Zoque), an ecologically important zone with high biological diversity, part of the Mesoamerican Biological Corridor.〔 It is home to cichlids among many other species of fish. The river provides water to the township of Santa María Chimalapa and to Cuauhtémoc, the most important arable and livestock region of the state of Oaxaca.〔 Running north through the Isthmus, the river joins the Coatzacoalcos River which trends in a roughly northeastly direction to the gulf. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「El Corte River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
