An annotated checklist of the gobioid fishes of Singapore

Abstract

Singapore records for all gobioid fish species are provided, in addition to relevant synonyms. The list includes some doubtful records from the literature and gives correct identifications of misidentified Singapore species wherever possible. A total of 149 gobioid species are now known from Singapore, including several of dubious identity. Of these, 37 have not been recently reported nor found in recent collections from the island, possibly due to habitat changes. Nine species of gobioid fishes are recorded from Singapore for the first time. © National University of Singapore.
