Abstract
The specific composition of the fish fauna from Khnifiss Lagoon (NW Africa) and several inshore sectors close to it was studied in July-August 1997, during a multidisciplinary expedition to the zone. The catalogue of the fishes collected is presented. Several species new records for the Sahara coast and four of them (Liza saliens, Syngnathus typhle, Symphodus melops and Coryphoblennius galerita) extend their distribution limits south- wards.
