General distribution. Venezuela, Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, Argentina ( Moreira et al. 2011b).

Habitat. Little information exists regarding the habitat associations of this species. It is known from rivers ( Nieser 1975) and the margins of unshaded marshlands with muddy bottoms and with dense vegetation and plant debris ( Torres et al. 2007).

At the INR, R. signoreti was collected from the margins of the Iberá Lagoon in shallow waters with emergent and floating vegetation (Estévez et al. 2003). During the present study, this species was collected from the unshaded margins with dense floating and emergent vegetation, and organic debris of lentic habitats (Luna Lagoon, Iberá Lagoon, Lobo Cuá marsh, Baletón San Pedro, marshlands and ponds) and lotic habitats (Carambola Stream, roadside ditches and rice channels).

Remarks. Ranatra signoreti was very often collected together with R. sjostedti .
