Wouri River : ウィキペディア英語版
Wouri River

The Wouri (also Vouri or Vuri) is a river in Cameroon. The river is formed at the confluence of the rivers Nkam and Makombé, northeast of the city of Yabassi. The Wouri then flows about southeast to the Wouri estuary at Douala, the chief port and industrial city in the southwestern part of Cameroon on the Gulf of Guinea. The river is navigable about upriver from Douala.
== Exploration ==

The Portuguese navigator and explorer Fernão do Pó or Fernando Poo, is believed to be the first European to explore the estuary of the Wouri, around the year 1472. The explorers noted an abundance of the mud lobster ''Lepidophthalmus turneranus'' in the Wouri River and named it ''Rio dos Camarões'', Portuguese for River of Prawns, and the phrase from which Cameroon is derived.
