Eugnathogobius illotus is a species of goby native to marine, brackish and fresh waters of Singapore, Thailand, Brunei and the Philippines. [3]

Taxonomy

This species was initially placed in genus Calamiana with the name C. illota. [2] Later research treated Calamiana as a junior synonym of Eugnathogobius ; consequently, the species has been classified in the genus Eugnathogobius with the name E. illotus as of 2009. [4] This has been followed by FishBase [3] and IUCN. [1]
