Valenciennea sexguttata (Valenciennes, 1837) Kingdom: Animalia Family: Gobiidae Phylum: Chordata Genus: Valenciennea Class: Actinopterygii Species: V. sexguttata Order: Perciformes Valencienna sexguttata, the Sixspot goby, is a species of goby native to the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean. It inhabits bays or lagoons in waters of from 1 to 25 meters with silt or sand substrates with larger pieces of rock under which to burrow. Maximum length is 12 cm in Persian Gulf (Iran, Kish Island). V. sexguttata usually in pairs and lives in a burrow under rocks. Commonly seen in aggregations over large areas in lagoons of atolls. They are tireless workers, remain on all the substrate very clean due Photography By: Ramin Ketabi to the peculiarity of their power. The main difference with the rest of Editor:Shahla Jamili (IFSRI) Valencianeas are 6 points neon blue that has in the shelving of the head and the black spot on the dorsal fin, In addition it blends with the white of the substrate and always will be around their burrows leaving it only to forage. V. sexguttata will be the day picking up the substrate by the mouth and automatically releasing by the gills, thus catch the microfauna of the substrate which serves as his power base. This species can get to stress the corals that we have, since the lifting of substrate, the dust that rises will be in the water to be removed by the skimmer column. Food: V. sexguttata is mainly carnivorous and live prey on the microfauna of the substrate. Distribution: We report Valencienna sexguttata for the first time from Iran, Kish Island (Persian Gulf ). This species widely distributed in the Indo-Pacific: Red Sea, Persian Gulf and East Africa to Samoa; north to Yaeyama Islands, Ryukyu Islands, south to Queensland, Australia..

E-mail: [email protected] 4Department of Biological Sciences, 212B Biological Sciences Bldg., University of Manitoba, Winnipeg MB, R3T 2N2 Canada Abstract Thalasseleotrididae n. fam. is erected to include two marine genera, Thalasseleotris Hoese & Larson from temperate Aus- tralia and New Zealand, and Grahamichthys Whitley from New Zealand. Both had been previously classified in the family Eleotrididae. The Thalasseleotrididae is demonstrably monophyletic on the basis of a single synapomorphy: membrane connecting the hyoid arch to ceratobranchial 1 broad, extending most of the length of ceratobranchial 1 (= first gill slit restricted or closed). The family represents the sister group of a newly diagnosed Gobiidae on the basis of five synapo- morphies: interhyal with cup-shaped lateral structure for articulation with preopercle; laterally directed posterior process on the posterior ceratohyal supporting the interhyal; pharyngobranchial 4 absent; dorsal postcleithrum absent; urohyal without ventral shelf. The Gobiidae is defined by three synapomorphies: five branchiostegal rays; expanded and medially- placed ventral process on ceratobranchial 5; dorsal hemitrich of pelvic-fin rays with complex proximal head.

There are totally 361 recorded species of gobioid fishes belonging to 113 genera, 5 subfamilies, and 9 families. This gobioid fauna of China comprises 16.2% of 2211 known living gobioid species of the world. This report repre- sents a summary of previous researches on the suborder Gobioidei. A recently diagnosed subfamily, Polyspondylogobiinae, were assigned from the type genus and type species: Polyspondylogobius sinen- sis Kimura & Wu, 1994 which collected around the Pearl River Delta with high extremity of vertebral count up to 52-54.

In marine habitats, 965 species (plus two introduced) are found, with the Labridae, Serranidae and Gobiidae being the largest families; 56.7 % of these species live in shallow coral reefs, 33.7 % inside the fringing reef, 28.0 % in shallow rocky reefs, 16.8 % on sand bottoms, 14.0 % in deep reefs, 11.9 % on the reef flat, and 11.1 % in estuaries. 63 species are first records for Réunion. Zoogeographically, 65 % of the fish fauna have a widespread Indo-Pacific distribution, while only 2.6 % are Mascarene endemics, and 0.7 % Réunion endemics. The classification of the following species is changed in the present paper: Anguilla labiata (Peters, 1852) [pre- viously A. bengalensis labiata]; Microphis millepunctatus (Kaup, 1856) [previously M. brachyurus millepunctatus]; Epinephelus oceanicus (Lacepède, 1802) [previously E. fasciatus (non Forsskål in Niebuhr, 1775)]; Ostorhinchus fasciatus (White, 1790) [previously Apogon fasciatus]; Mulloidichthys auriflamma (Forsskål in Niebuhr, 1775) [previously Mulloidichthys vanicolensis (non Valenciennes in Cuvier & Valenciennes, 1831)]; Stegastes luteobrun- neus (Smith, 1960) [previously S.

The morphometric and meristic characters of the recorded specimens are described and discussed. This is the first record of the species from the In- dian waters that is a range extension of its known range within the Indian Ocean. Keywords Gobiidae, Bay of Bengal, Tuticorin, geographical range, Gulf of Mannar Introduction The Gobiidae constitute one of the largest families of percomorph fishes. The family has a total of over 1,640 species belonging to six subfamilies (Pezold 1993, Hoese and Larson 1994, Nelson 2006).These subfamilies are distributed in reef environments of the Indian and Pacific oceans, which are home to the greatest diversity of gobiid fishes.
