I noticed that several major rivers are unidentified (Capibaribe), or incorrectly identified (what is identified as Una river, is actually the Ipojuca river).

See attachment: Bacias Hidrográficas SIRGAS in KMZ, from the Agência Pernambucana de Águas e Clima APAC (Water and Climate Agency of Pernambuco) that identifies the areas of each river basin.

May want to investigate using Brazil's official hydrography dataset https://metadados.snirh.gov.br/geonetwork/srv/api/records/0c698205-6b59-48dc-8b5e-a58a5dfcc989
