Species Gobiopterus mindanensis (Herre, 1944)

Mindanao Glassgoby, Fragil Glassgoby

 

Introduction

Use of the name for this species is tentative and the species may be identical with Gobiopterus chuno from Asia. Kottelat (2013) regarded Gobiopterus chuno as widespread and a senior synonym of G. fragilis. The genus is in need of revision.
