Akko rossi, the blackfin specter goby, is a species of goby from the family Gobiidae. It is mostly known from one specimen from El Salvador. It lives in burrows in black mud. [1] [2]
Priolepis robinsi is a species of goby native to the Atlantic Ocean off of Santa Marta, Colombia. The specific name honours the American ichthyologist C. Richard Robins (1928-2020) who was at the University of Miami where he studied neotropical gobies.
The common goby is a species of ray-finned fish native to fresh and brackish waters along the Atlantic and Baltic Sea coasts of Europe and northern Africa, with a range stretching from Norway to Morocco and Mauritania. It is also found in the Canary Islands. This species reaches a maximum length of 9 centimetres (3.5 in) TL.
Risor ruber, the Tusked goby, is a species of goby native to reefs of the western Atlantic Ocean from southern Florida to the Bahamas and south to northern Brazil. This species associates with barrel sponges, sometimes living within the sponge. This species can reach a length of 2.5 centimetres (0.98 in) TL. It is currently the only known member of its genus.
Lythrypnus dalli, commonly known as the blue-banded goby or Catalina goby, is a species of goby. It is native to the eastern Pacific where it is found from Monterey Bay, California to northern Peru, including the Gulf of California. It can be found in coastal waters at depths of from 0 to 76 metres with rocky substrates in which there are crevices for concealment. It is also known to hide amongst the spines of sea urchins. It is a bidirectional hermaphrodite and capable of rapidly switching sexes. This species can reach a length of 6.4 centimetres (2.5 in) TL. It can also be found in the aquarium trade. The specific name honours the malacologist William Healey Dall (1845-1927), who when trawling for specimens off Catalina Harbour, California, caught one of the type specimens.
Coryphopterus glaucofraenum, the bridled goby, is a species of goby native to the Western Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea from North Carolina to Brazil. It can be found on reefs at depths of from 2 to 45 metres in areas of white sand. This species can reach a length of 8 centimetres (3.1 in) TL. It occasionally makes its way into the aquarium trade.
Gobiodon histrio, the Broad-barred goby, is a species of goby native to the Indian Ocean from the Red Sea to the western Pacific Ocean to southern Japan, Samoa and the Great Barrier Reef. This species is a reef dweller, being found at depths of from 2 to 15 metres. It can reach a length of 3.5 centimetres (1.4 in) TL. This species can also be found in the aquarium trade.
True gobies were a subfamily, the Gobiinae, of the goby family Gobiidae, although the 5th edition of the Fishes of the World does not subdivide the Gobiidae into subfamilies. They are found in all oceans and a few rivers and lakes, but most live in warm waters. Altogether, the Gobiinae unite about 1149 described species in 160 genera, and new ones are still being discovered in numbers.
The scaly boy is a species of goby native to the Pacific coast of Central America from Mexico to Panama. This species is the only known member of its genus.
Akko is a genus of gobies native to the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of the Americas.
The Slow goby is a species of goby fish endemic to the Gulf of California on the west coast of North America. It inhabits crevices in rocks and can be found in tide pools down to a depth of around 14 metres (46 ft). This species grows to a maximum length of 6.5 centimetres (2.6 in) SL. This species is the only known member of its genus.
Barbuligobius boehlkei, the Cryptic bearded goby, is a species of goby native to the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean where it can be found on sand-rubble substrates at depths of from 1 to 15 metres. This species grows to a length of 2 centimetres (0.79 in) SL. This species is the only known member of its genus. Its specific name honours James E. Böhlke (1930-1982) of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia.
Cable's goby is a species of goby endemic to reefs around the Galápagos Islands. This species grows to a length of 7 centimetres (2.8 in) SL. This species is the only known member of its genus. The specific name honours the United States Government biologist Louella E. Cable (1900-1986), who illustrated this goby for the describer Isaac Ginsburg, and drew his attention to its separated ventral fins.
Ginsburgellus novemlineatus, the Nineline goby, is a species of goby native to tropical reefs of the western Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. It is frequently found associated with the sea urchin Echinometra lucunter, living underneath the urchin. This species grows to a length of 2.5 centimetres (0.98 in) TL. This species can also be found in the aquarium trade. This species is the only known member of its genus, the name of which honours the ichthyologist Isaac Ginsburg (1886-1975) of the U.S. National Museum who had an interest in gobies.
Sicydium plumieri is a freshwater species of the goby native to the Antilles from Cuba to Trinidad and Tobago, though not recorded from all islands. This species can reach a length of 11 centimetres (4.3 in) TL. It is also known by the English common names sirajo, Plumier's stone-biting goby, and tri-tri goby. The young, which are regarded as a delicacy, are of commercial importance. The specific name honours Charles Plumier (1646-1704), a Franciscan friar and naturalist, who found the first specimens of the species on Martinique and Marcus Elieser Bloch based his species description on Plumier's drawings.
The splitbanded goby is a species of goby from the family Gobiidae which is native to the Pacific coast of the Americas from Baja California to Ecuador. This species can be found on rock or rubble reefs with growths of algae at a depth of from 1 to 23 metres. This species grows to a length of 5 centimetres (2.0 in) TL. This species is the only known member of its genus.
The orangespotted goby is a species of goby native to the tropical Atlantic coast from Bermuda and southern Florida through the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico south to the Caribbean coasts of Venezuela and Colombia, where it prefers silty bottoms around reefs. It is a commensal with an alpheid shrimp. This species grows to a length of 10 centimetres (3.9 in) TL. This species is the only known member of its genus.

Akko dionaea, the Atlantic specter goby, is a species of gobies native to the Amazon basin and Colombia. It inhabits black mud at ca. 20 m depth.
Evermannichthys bicolor is a perciform species of fish in the family Gobiidae. As their name suggests, fishes in this species live inside sponges and can be found in the Caribbean Sea. The size of their populations are unknown, meaning it is not currently clear whether the bicolored sponge goby is in need of conservation.
