River in Malis, central Greece, likely the modern Mavronero (Müller I, 343). In Herodotus’ description of the region, he explains that the SPERCHEIUS RIVER is twenty stades from the DYRAS RIVER, which is in turn twenty stades from the Black River (7.198.2). In addition, he notes that TRACHIS is only five stades away from the Black River (7.199.1). Though these RIVERS at the time of Herodotus’ writing flowed separately into the MALIAN GULF, today the Dyras and Black rivers are tributaries of the Spercheius.
