At the present time several species of the genus Charadrius occur on the Atlantic coasts of Morocco. According to the estimated length of the humerus (ca. 32 mm) the plover present at Ahl al Oughlam was slightly larger than the Recent species Charadrius dubius and C. alexandrinus and was closer to the Recent species Charadrius hiaticula .
