Eastern Atlantic: known from Gibraltar to Namibia . The current distribution in the Eastern Atlantic is uncertain due to species misidentification, lack of reporting, and the general contraction of its range. This species was historically found along the coast of western Africa from Angola to Mauritania ( Faria et al ., 2013 ). There has been only one confirmed record for the region in the last 10 years ( Sierra Leone in 2003). There are unconfirmed records ( Pristis sp. ) from only two other countries ( Guinea-Bissau in 2011, and Mauritania in 2010).
