Resum

The first record for the Iberian coast and the Atlantic Ocean of two species of polychaetous annelids belonging to the genus Boccardia Carazzi, 1893 (Spionidae) is presented. Boccardia semibranchiata Guérin, 1990 is a recently described species from the Mediteranean Sea, whereas Boccardia proboscidea Hartman, 1940 is a very common species from the Pacific coasts. Both species have been collected in two intertidal zones from San Sebastián (Iberian Peninsula - Bay of Biscay). In the present paper, the collected specimens of both species are described, illustrated and discussed, and notes on their ecology and distribution are included. A simple key for the genus Boccardia for the Atlantic coasts is also provided.
