Abstract
    Although Pholas dactylus Linnaeus, 1758 is already known to live in Senegal and South Africa (Huber, 2015 - CD Rom: Chapter 5: Systematic listing of 8,500 valid species) few specimens are actually reported from these two areas due to a lack of material. Even von Cosel and Gofas (2020) did not mention this species in their extensive review of West African bivalves. Moreover, specimens from Western Sahara were mistaken for Pholas campechiensis Gmelin, 1791 by shell collectors and dealers. To end this widespread confusion both species are illustrated and commented on their differences.
