Abstract

The presence of the Gorgona guitarfish, Rhinobatos prahli, in new zones of the Colombian Pacific coast is registered. The current unique Colombian record of the species corresponds to its description from Gorgona Island in 1995. This paper gives new information on the species on the tropical eastern Pacific coast; and contributes to the knowledge of the habitat used by this species in these zones.
