The Yegorlyk (Russian: Егорлык or Большой Егорлык) is a north-flowing river on the Black Sea-Caspian Steppe of southern Russia, a left tributary of the Manych. It is 448 kilometres (278 mi) long, and has a drainage basin of 15,000 square kilometres (5,800 sq mi).[1] Since the Manych flows into the Don it is the southernmost tributary of the Don, if one excludes the Kalaus.
