We present here a first database on the diversity of proseriate flatworms (Platyhelminthes: Rhabditophora: Proseriata) in microtidal, wave dominated beaches along the shores of the Western Mediterranean Sea. We sampled 116 stations in two years, through Spain (22 beaches, including Balearic Islands), France (25 beaches, including Corsica), Italy (63 beaches, including Sardinia, Sicily, and Lampedusa), and Tunisia (6 beaches). In each beach, we collected samples at three depths, corresponding to the swash, shoal, and subtidal zones. The research yielded a total of 152 species, of which 93 were new to science.
