Abstract

Information is provided on new specimens of the recently described Amblyeleotris memnonia species (Gobiidae), previously known only by its holotype. The absence of sufficient grounds for changing the generic affiliation of Navigobius khanhoa (Microdesmidae) is shown. The ontogenetic variability of some features of Oxymetopon curticauda (Microdesmidae) was clarified.

Notes

  1. Mode of the number of branching rays in IID and A is, respectively, 19½ and 20½.

  2. The gonads of all three fish are poorly developed, but the sex attribute of the female SL 114 mm is undeniable.
