SUMMARY On the basis of an analysis of literature records and material in collections, the presence is established throughout the Red Sea, including the Gulfs of Aqaba and Suez, of living populations of the following species of the Cerithiid genus Rhinoclavis: aspera (Linnaeus, 1758), fasciata (Bruguière, 1792), sinensis (Gmelin, 1791), sordidula (Gould, 1849) and kochi (Philippi, 1848). These species have a wide Indo-Pacific distribution. They intruded into the Red Sea in the Post-Glacial period notwithstanding its high salinity and temperature and the physical barrier of the narrow, shallow Bab el Mandeb straits. Rhinoclavis articulata (Adams & Reeve, 1850) is known from a single report to occur in the Gulf of Suez, whereas populations of vertagus (Linnaeus, 1767) have become extinct, as shown by fossil records. RIASSUNTO Sulla base di una analisi dei dati della letteratura e del materiale nelle collezioni, è stabilita la presenza in ogni parte del Mar Rosso, inclusi i golfi di Aqaba e Suez, di popolazioni viventi di Cerithiidae delle seguenti specie del genere Rhinoclavis: aspera (L., 175S), fasciata (Bruguière, 1792), sinensis (Gmelin, 1791), sordidula (Gould, 1849) e kochi (Philippi, 1848). Queste specie hanno u
