Well done, and thanks for sharing! Nice to see that some taxonomy is still done by looking at the fish itself, rather than its genome. Cheers, Neale...
Hey Gobians, i was diving in the red sea and observed some cryptic gobies on the sand ground (15-20m depth). from time to time, they seemed to put on...
Hi micha, I have no idea on the behavioral meaning of these particular coloration changes, which nonetheless are widespread in gobies, and are frequently...
This does not appear indicative of any form of behaviour. It would appear that refractive qualities regarding the shape of the corneo, the lens, etc. bends...
Thanks so far, Gianluca and Ron. The effect didnt only affect the eyes but the surrounding tissue (as seen on the fishbase pictures G linked to), so I don't...
that' exactly what I meant... I don't know these fishes, but maybe Zeehan Jaafar from this list maybe can tell you more. I think she worked on Cryptocentrus...
RE: [gobygroup] Re: strange eye-effect Hi All, Thanks for the reminder Gianluca, I had been meaning to reply to the list for a few days. Based on my...
Hi folks. Got these three gobies in. Need help with identifications. Here's links to the pics: http://www.franksaquarium.com/images/goby/crepe_goby.jpg ...
hi Frank, the crepe goby might be Butis koilomatodon (looks like the ones up here) and the bearded goby might Prionobutis dasyrhynchus (which I've never seen...
If you want to rear them, note that in the field, I always found Butis koilomatodon in seawater (25-30 ppt)... I also never saw the other one. Gianluca ...
Dear all, anyone has a clue for this goby? Helen? Collected in Hong Kong. There are no nasal flaps visible, thus I don't think it's an oxudercine. The shape of...
looks like C. maudae to me too <')////==< ________________________________ From: gobygroup@yahoogroups.com on behalf of Zeehan Jaafar Sent: Thu 9/04/2009 2:37...
I discussed with the photographer in the local forum and from the large size of 7 inches I would suggest Parapcryptes serpengester or Pseudapocryptes...

Hi there, im having trouble identifying a goby in my aquarium. http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/1411/dsc03336.jpg See the link above for a photo, it looks all...
Hi there, Do Sicyopus come in different varietys? Ive been trying to ID a goby that looks just like Chuzzlewit's, but ive noticed the pattern on the Sicyopus...
... Hi there, I've recently acquired some stiphodon species also. I absolutely love them!! There doesn't seem to be a lot of info but check out this...
Sicyopus puzzle us goby-taxonomists too. There are a number of undescribed Sicyopus (and Lentipes and Stiphodon) species - plus males and females often are...
... There are some amazing looking fish on that page. I'd love to get some more, maybe like the ones on that page, but i never see them around. I got my one...
Stiphodon and related genera of Sicyopterus and Sicyopus under Sicydiinae are not well studied taxonomically. They are diadromic stream gobies inhabiting rapid...
OK i'll try and get some decent photos, i can understand how it must be difficult to identify from a single dodgy photo lol, i'll do as you suggest and try and...
