Etymology: Raja: Latin, raja, -ae = a sting ray (Raja sp.) (Ref. 45335);  mauritaniensis: Named for the geographic region of the type specimens; i.e. Mauritania, to acknowledge the intent by Capapé (1977) to name this skate based on its known distribution..

Issue
Raja africana Capapé, 1977 is a homonym, being preoccupied by Raja africana Bloch & Schneider, 1801(Ref. 26282) and thus needs a replacement name which is Raja mauritaniensis White & Fricke, 2021 (Ref. 124211).
