Bathygobius is a circumtropical genus of fish in the family Gobiidae. [1]
There are currently 29 recognized species in this genus: [2]
Chromis is a genus of fish in the family Pomacentridae. While the term damselfish describes a group of marine fish including more than one genus, Chromis is the largest genus of damselfishes. Certain species within the genus are common in the aquarium trade.
Eviota is a genus of fish in the family Gobiidae, commonly as dwarfgobies found in the Indo-Pacific region, where it is distributed from Japan to Australia and from Africa to Pitcairn Island. Species are mainly associated with coral reefs. Many of these fish are short-lived, with life cycles as brief as 3.5 weeks in the tropics. Some species are hermaphrodites and some representatives live symbiotically among the tentacles of the mushroom coral.
Acentrogobius is a genus of gobies native to marine, fresh and brackish waters of the coasts of the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean.
Awaous is a genus of fish in the family Gobiidae, the gobies. They are native to fresh, marine and brackish waters from Africa to the Americas.
Gobius is a genus of fish in the family Gobiidae native to fresh, brackish and marine waters of and around Europe, Africa and Asia. It contains the typical gobies, being the type genus of the formerly recognised subfamily Gobiinae and family and the namesake genus of its order Gobiiformes.
Oligolepis is a genus of fish in the goby family Gobiidae, native to marine, fresh and brackish waters of the coastal areas of the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean.
Stenogobius is a genus of fish in the goby subfamily, Gobionellinae. They are native to fresh, brackish and marine waters along the coasts of the Indian and Pacific Oceans. They are known commonly as coastal stream gobies.
Amblygobius is a genus of fish in the family Gobiidae found in the Indian and Pacific Ocean.
The Gobionellinae are a subfamily of fish which was formerly classified in the family Gobiidae, the gobies, but the 5th Edition of Fishes of the World classifies the subfamily as part of the family Oxudercidae. Members of Gobionellinae mostly inhabit estuarine and freshwater habitats; the main exception is the genus Gnatholepis, which live with corals in marine environments. The subfamily is distributed in tropical and temperate regions around the world with the exception of the northeastern Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Ponto-Caspian region. It includes around 370 species and 55 genera: Wikipedia articles about genera list about 389 species.
Oplopomus is a genus of gobies found in coral reefs of the Indo-Pacific region. It contains two species.
Amblyopinae is a subfamily of elongated mud-dwelling gobies commonly called eel gobies or worm gobies; it has been regarded as a subfamily of the family Gobiidae, while the 5th edition Fishes of the World classifies it as a subfamily of the family Oxudercidae. The members in the subfamily have two dorsal fins that are connected by a membranous structure and their eyes are highly reduced in size. They are usually pink, red, or purple in coloration.
Asterropteryx is a genus of fish in the family Gobiidae found in the Indian and Pacific Ocean.
Callogobius is a genus of fish in the family Gobiidae found in brackish and marine waters of the Indian and Pacific Ocean.
Gobiosoma is a genus of gobies native to fresh, brackish and marine waters of the Americas.
Mahidolia is a small genus of gobies native to the Indian Ocean and the Western Pacific Ocean. Both species are commensal with species of alpheid shrimps.
Oxyurichthys is a genus of fish in the subfamily Gobionellinae, commonly known as arrowfin gobies. They are distributed in the tropical and subtropical Indian and Pacific Oceans; one species is also known from the western Atlantic Ocean. Most species live in shallow waters under 10 meters deep over fine substrates such as silt.
The frillfin goby is a species of marine fish in the genus Bathygobius.
Varicus is a genus of fish in the family Gobiidae, the gobies. They are native to the western Atlantic Ocean.
The dusky frillgoby, also known as the brown frillfin, is a species of goby which is found in the Indo-Pacific region from the South Africa north to the Red Sea and east as far as Tonga, south to Australia and north to Japan. It is a mainly coastal speciesbut it has an amphidromous life cycle and it occurs in estuaries and will move into in freshwater streams. In estuarine areas it is found mainly in the creeks preferring environments with sand and rubble, soft coral and open reefs. It feeds on detritus, as well as feeding on crustaceans, fish and algae and it is a benthic spawner. The maximum total length is 12 centimetres (4.7 in).
Bathygobius meggitti is a species of Goby fish, also known as Meggitt's goby, Meggitt's frillgoby, or the brownlined goby, in the Bathygobius genus and Gobiidae family. It is native to Australia and can be found in rocky pools in intertidal zones and rocky shores, along the country's northern coastline.
