Eugnathogobius illotus is a species of goby native to marine, brackish and fresh waters of Singapore, Thailand, Brunei and the Philippines. [3]
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]
Stiphodon is a genus of freshwater gobies. They inhabit swift, clear streams close to the sea and are found in large parts of Asia and Oceania. Many of the 36 currently recognized species have extremely restricted distributions on single islands or even single streams. These are small gobies with bodies squarish in cross section. A female of Stiphodon multisquamus with a standard length of 60.4mm is the largest Stiphodon individual on record.
Schismatogobius is a genus of fish in the subfamily Gobionellinae. They are native to southern and eastern Asia, Australia and the Pacific Islands. Adults dwell in freshwater habitat such as streams and rivers, where they live along the sand and gravel substrates.
Butis butis, the crazy fish, duckbill sleeper, or upside-down sleeper, is a species of sleeper goby that are native to brackish and freshwater coastal habitats of the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean from the African coast to the islands of Fiji. They prefer well-vegetated waters and can frequently be found in mangrove swamps. They are small, drably-colored fish, reaching a maximum length of only 15 cm (5.9 in). They are predatory and are known for their behavior of swimming vertically – or even upside down – while hunting.
Glossogobius flavipinnis is a species from the family Gobiidae endemic to Lake Towuti in Sulawesi, Indonesia,> where it is generally found at shallow depths over hard bottoms. This species can reach a length of 8 cm (3.1 in) TL, although in a review of museum specimens the largest male was only 3.9 cm (1.5 in) and the largest female 5.7 cm (2.2 in). It is overall uniform dark with a yellow first dorsal fin. It was previously known under the name Stupidogobius flavipinnis.
Mugilogobius is a genus of fish in the family Gobiidae. They are found in fresh, brackish and marine water of the Indo-Pacific region. Several of the freshwater species have highly restricted distributions.
The Kei goby is a species of goby native to marine and brackish waters along the coasts of Mozambique, South Africa, Madagascar and the Seychelles. This species can reach a length of 7 centimetres (2.8 in) TL.
The Gobiiformes are an order of fish that includes the gobies and their relatives. The order, which was previously considered a suborder of Perciformes, is made up of about 2,211 species that are divided between seven families. Phylogenetic relationships of the Gobiiformes have been elucidated using molecular data. Gobiiforms are primarily small species that live in marine water, but roughly 10% of these species inhabit fresh water. This order is composed chiefly of benthic or burrowing species; like many other benthic fishes, most gobiiforms do not have a gas bladder or any other means of controlling their buoyancy in water, so they must spend most of their time on or near the bottom. Gobiiformes means "goby-like".
Periophthalmus is a genus of fish in the family Oxudercidae, native to coastal mangrove wood and shrubland in the Indo-Pacific region, except for P. barbarus from the Atlantic coast of Africa. It is one of the genera commonly known as mudskippers. Periophthalmus fishes are remarkable for being able to live, temporarily, in open air where they feed with insects and small invertebrates; out of water they have limited motion abilities, such as jumping. All Periophthalmus species are aggressive and territorial.
Pseudogobiopsis is a genus of fish in the goby family, Gobiidae. They are native to fresh and brackish waters of southern and southeastern Asia. The genus is mainly distinguished by the number and arrangement of fin rays and spines, headpores, and sensory papillae, the large mouths of the males, a fleshy or bony flange on the pectoral girdle, and the shape of the genital papilla.
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.
Caecogobius cryptophthalmus is a species of goby that is endemic to underground habitats in Calbiga on the Philippine island of Samar. This species is one of two members of the genus Caecogobius, which are the only known cavefish in the Philippines. Like other cavefish, C. cryptophthalmus has reduced eyes and pigmentation.
Eugnathogobius is a genus of gobies native to fresh, brackish and marine waters of the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean region.
Gnatholepis is a genus of fish in the family Gobiidae, the gobies. It is the only marine genus in the subfamily Gobionellinae, which otherwise includes mostly estuary-dwelling and freshwater fish. Gnatholepis are tropical fish associated with sandy habitat around corals.
Drombus globiceps is one of ten species of goby in the genus Drombus. It is found in the western Indo-Pacific. Its common names include Kranji drombus and bighead goby. It is a tropical fish and has been recorded from the Ganges Delta and Chilika Lake of India, the Bay of Bengal, Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, and the Northern Territory and northern Queensland of Australia. It lives in both marine and fresh water environments. It is considered that D. globiceps is possibly a synonym of Drombus ocyurus. Its threats to human is least concerned.
Eugnathogobius siamensis is a species of goby.
Pseudogobiopsis lumbantobing is a species of goby from the subfamily Gobionellinae which is found in Java and Sumatra where it occurs in freshwater rivers and streams at altitudes of 5–22 metres (16–72 ft), with substrates made up of sand, gravel, rock, and boulders and where there may be growths of algae and aquatic macrophytes. This species has been traded in the European aquarium trade since 2001.

Platygobiopsis hadiatyae is a species of goby, commonly known as a Renny's flat goby.
Nemateleotris lavandula, known by lavender-blushed dartfish, is a species of dartfish which was described in 2023 on the basis of the holotype from Augulupelu Reef, Palau, and twelve paratypes from across the western and central Pacific Ocean, including Fiji, Guam, Japan, and the Marshall Islands. It was previously confused with the Helfrich's dartfish.
