Speleogobius is a genus of goby native to the Mediterranean Sea.
There are currently 2 recognized species in this genus:
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.
Knipowitschia is a genus of marine, fresh and brackish water gobies native to Eurasia. The genus name almost certainly honours Nikolai Mikhailovich Knipovich (1862-1938), a biologist who led a number of expeditions to the Caspian Sea.
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.
The grass goby is a species of goby native to the Mediterranean Sea, the Sea of Azov and the Black Sea. It is currently the only known member of its genus.
Pinchuk's goby is a species of goby native to the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov.
Bucchich's goby is a species of goby native to the Eastern Mediterranean Sea and perhaps the Black Sea. It has traditionally been considered to be more widespread, but in 2016 the similar incognito goby was described. It had been confused with the Bucchich's goby and much information formerly published for this species is now considered to actually be for the incognito goby.
Didogobius is a genus of small marine fish in the family Gobiidae, the true gobies. They are native to the eastern Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. The name of the genus is a compound noun made up of Dido, the mythical founder and first queen of Carthage, and the Latin gobius meaning "goby".
Didogobius schlieweni is a species of goby native to the Adriatic Sea. The specific name honours the German ichthyologist Ulrich Schliewen of the Zoologische Staatssammlung München in Munich, the collector of the type and who suggested that the species be given the common name Andromeda Goby referring to the "nebula-like pattern of light and dark markings".
Steinitz's goby is a species of goby. It is native to the Mediterranean Sea near Marseilles. Recently recorded in the Adriatic Sea in Croatia, Tyrrhenian Sea in Italy, and in the Black Sea in Ukraine. This species can be found in underwater grottoes in inshore waters at depths of from 2 to 15 metres. It can reach a length of 3.8 centimetres (1.5 in) SL. The specific name honours the marine biologist and herpetologist Heinz Steinitz (1909-1971) of the Hebrew University, Jerusalem.
Buenia is a genus of gobies native to the eastern Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. The name of the genus and the common name of the type species honour Fernando de Buen y Lozano (1895-1962), the Spanish oceanographer and marine biologist.
Crystallogobius linearis, the crystal goby, is a species of goby native to the Atlantic coasts of Europe and the Mediterranean Sea where it can be found at depths of from 1 to 400 metres. Males of this species grow to a length of 4.7 centimetres (1.9 in) SL while females only reach 3.9 centimetres (1.5 in) SL. This species is the only known member of its genus. The name Crystallogobius comes from the Latin words cristallum, meaning "crystal", and gobius, meaning gudgeon.
Gorogobius is a genus of gobies native to the Atlantic coast of Africa.
Ferrer's goby is a species of goby native to the Mediterranean Sea where it occurs in inshore waters inhabiting areas with sandy substrates. This species grows to a length of 3.5 centimetres (1.4 in) TL. This species is the only known member of its genus. The specific name honours Jaume Ferrer Aledo (1854-1956), a pharmacist and amateur ichthyologist who studied the fish fauna in the Balearic Islands.
Speleogobius trigloides, also known as the Grotto goby, is a species of goby native to the Mediterranean Sea where it is known to inhabit grottoes at depths of from 8 to 25 metres. This species grows to a length of 1.8 centimetres (0.71 in) SL.
The zebra goby is a species of goby native to the Mediterranean Sea, where it occurs in lagoons and tide pools at depths down to 3 m (9.8 ft). It prefers areas of concealment, such as within patches of seagrass or algae or underneath stones. This species grows to a total length of 5.5 cm (2.2 in). This species is the only known member of its genus.
Gobius incognitus, the incognito goby or anemone goby, is a species of goby native to the Mediterranean Sea and perhaps the Black Sea. The name incognitus means "unknown" in Latin and refers to the long period of time that passed before this common and widespread species was recognized and described. Prior to its description, it was confused with Bucchich's goby, a species that now appears to be restricted to the Eastern Mediterranean Sea and perhaps the Black Sea. Much previously published information for Bucchich's goby is now considered to actually be for the incognito goby.
Didogobius amicuscardis is a species of marine fish in the family Gobiidae, the gobies. It is endemic to São Tomé and Príncipe, where it occurs at depths from 7 to 25 m. The species was named and described by Kovačić and Schliewen in 2008.
Didogobius wirtzi is a species of marine fish in the family Gobiidae, the gobies. It is endemic to Cape Verde, where it occurs at depths from 15 to 25 m. The species was first described by Kovačić and Schliewen in 2008.
Gorogobius stevcici is a species of gobies in the family of Gobiidae, endemic to the coastal waters of the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe, where it occurs at depths from 15 to 40 m. The species was named and described by Kovačić and Schliewen in 2008. The fish grows to a maximum of 3.3 cm in length for males and 2.3 cm for females.
Speleogobius llorisi, Llori's grotto goby, is a species of ray-finned fish, a true goby from the family Gobiidae. It was described in 2016 from specimens collected in the western Mediterranean Sea.
