摘要
Spurilla dakariensis Pruvot-Fol 1953, a poorly known species from west Africa, is redescribed based on a specimen collected alive in Goree Bay, Senegal, during the campaign Dakar'09. A neotype is designated and new data are provided on the colouration and the external and the internal anatomy. The characters observed suggest that S. dakariensis is indeed a valid species of the genus Berghia Trinchese 1877, thus, a new combination for this taxon is proposed: Berghia dakariensis new combination.
