Gracias por la explicación. Ahora entiendo mejor.
Chema Nieto Castañón Dec 9, 2018:
Quiere decir que a 75 Km de la costa es cuando la altitud del curso del río Majes es de 650 metros, y no antes.

although in the Majes River this altitude is not reached until 75 km inland

The way I see it, the Majes River is key to the whole idea and cannot be omitted from the context.

In other words, the otters are feeding on shrimp 40 km inland on the Camaná and Ocoña rivers at an altitude of 650 m, but on the Majes River this altitude is only reached at/not reached until 75 km inland. I think 'reached'conveys a clearer picture.
