Gobiidae
Gobiidae (goby; subclass Actinopterygii, order Perciformes) A very large family of coastal-water fish. Most species have the
pelvic fins united to form a sucking disc which is used to cling to hard objects on the sea floor. Unlike the clingfish (
Gobiesocidae) the gobies have two
dorsal fins, the first one being spiny. Gobies form an important part of the fish population of rocky shores, sea-grass beds, and coral reefs. Some species live in close association with other animals, e.g. sea urchins and shrimps. Most gobies are very small;
Gobius vittatus (striped goby) of the Mediterranean does not exceed 4 cm. One of the largest gobies is
G. giuris of the Indo-Pacific, which reaches a length of 50 cm. With about 800 species, Gobiidae is the largest family of marine fish, found in tropical to temperate waters world-wide.
