Revision of the gobiid fish genera Eugnathogobius and Pseudogobiopsis

Dr. Helen K. Larson has recently reviewed the gobiid fish genera Eugnathogobius and Pseudogobiopsis (Gobioidei: Gobiidae: Gobionellinae) from Indo-West Pacific and Southeast Asian localities with descriptions of three new species. Some materials were redescribed. Key to Gobionelline genera is given and keys to both genera were also provided. Three species of Eugnathogobius were found in Malaysia - E. siamensis, E. polylepis and E. kabilia but only E. siamensis is confirmed found in freshwater ecosystem of Peninsular Malaysia. Two other species - E. variegatus and E. illotus were absent in Malaysia but the former reported from Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia and Papua New Guinia and the later was reported from Thailand, Singapore, Brunei and the Philippines. Interesting! There are four valid species of Pseudogobiopsis and at least two species were reported from Malaysia - P. oligactis and P. paludosus. Both species present in Peninsular Malaysia.

This publication is timely and able to ease difficulties in identification of both genera. The full paper can be read at: http://rmbr.nus.edu.sg/rbz/biblio/57/57rbz127-181.pdf

Gatty Marine Laboratory

Unlike many universities in Malaysia, University of St Andrews scattered across St Andrews town. There are various university buildings and even faculties located inside the St Andrews town. Gatty Marine Laboratory, East Sands, is situated at the School of Environmental & Evolutionary Biology. Here, various groups conducting research dealt with the biodiversity, behaviour, ecology, physiology, population biology and functional genomics of marine organisms.

Here are the group based at Gatty:
Comparative Immunology Group
Fish Behaviour and Biodiversity
Fish Endocrinology Research Group
Fish Muscle Research Group
Marine Ecology Research Group
Sea Mammal Research Unit
Sediment Ecology Research Group
