Mugilogobius platynotus, commonly known as the flatback mangrove goby, is a species of goby native to eastern Australia. [1]
The Australian flatback sea turtle is a species of sea turtle in the family Cheloniidae. The species is endemic to the sandy beaches and shallow coastal waters of the Australian continental shelf. This turtle gets its common name from the fact that its shell has a flattened or lower dome than the other sea turtles. It can be olive green to grey with a cream underside. It averages from 76 to 96 cm in carapace length and can weigh from 70 to 90 kg. The hatchlings, when emerging from nests, are larger than other sea turtle hatchlings when they hatch.
Mugilogobius adeia is a species of goby endemic to Lake Matano on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi where it inhabits areas with a number of shells of the gastropod Tylomelania gemmifera in which it seeks shelter. This species can reach a length of 4.3 centimetres (1.7 in) TL.
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.
Mugilogobius latifrons is a species of goby endemic to the Malili Lake system in central Sulawesi, Indonesia generally being found in extremely shallow waters. This species can reach a length of 4.7 centimetres (1.9 in) TL.
Redigobius is a genus of fish in the goby family, Gobiidae, known commonly as dualspot gobies. They are native to the western Indo-Pacific region, where they occur in estuaries and freshwater habitats just above the tidal influence.
Mugilogobius sarasinorum, Sarasin's goby, is a species of goby endemic to Lake Poso in Sulawesi, Indonesia. This species can reach a length of 8 centimetres (3.1 in) TL. It is important to local commercial fisheries and the fishing community.
Ponticola is a genus of gobies native mostly to fresh waters of the Black Sea - Caspian Sea region in Eurasia. Some species occur in the brackish-water Black and Caspian seas themselves. It was considered to be part of the broader goby subfamily Benthophilinae, also endemic to the same region, although the 5th edition of Fishes of the World does not list any subfamilies in the Gobiidae. Originally, Ponticola was described as subgenus of Neogobius.
Tridentiger is a genus of fish in the subfamily of gobies called the Gobionellinae, known commonly as the tripletooth gobies.
Arenigobius is a genus of gobies native to the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean.
Gobiosoma is a genus of gobies native to fresh, brackish and marine waters of the Americas.
Mugilogobius chulae, commonly known as the yellowstripe goby or Chulae's goby, is a species of freshwater, brackish goby, where it feeds on small crustaceans, aquatic insects and insect larvae. It is found in coastal eastern Asia from the Ryukyu Islands south to Sumatra.
Mugilogobius rambaiae, commonly known as the Queen of Siam goby, is a species of freshwater goby from Sri Lanka and South-east Asia to New Guinea. It occurs in freshwater or the very low salinities of inner estuaries, and also in areas where Nypa fruticans grows. This species moves up rivers in the rainy season.
Mugilogobius tigrinus is a small species of goby from mangrove creeks and pools in southeast Asia.
Mugilogobius wilsoni, commonly known as Wilson's mangrove goby, is a species of goby native to the waters of northern Australia.
Mugilogobius stigmaticus, commonly known as blackspot mangrove goby, is a species of goby native to the waters of eastern Australia.
Akko brevis, the dark-tail specter-goby, is a species of gobies native to the eastern central Pacific from El Salvador to Panama. It is found in black muddy bottoms of estuaries and mangroves.
Oxudercidae is a family of gobies which consists of four subfamilies which were formerly classified under the family Gobiidae. The family is sometimes called the Gobionellidae, but Oxudercidae has priority. The species in this family have a cosmopolitan distribution in temperate and tropical areas and are found in marine and freshwater environments, typically in inshore, euryhaline areas with silt and sand substrates.
