Awaous Guamensis
''Awaous guamensis'' is a species of goby native to the Pacific islands from the Marianas to Vanuatu, New Caledonia and Fiji where it can be found in fresh, brackish and marine waters. Recent work based upon morphological and genetic differences has recognized Hawaiian populations of ''Awaous'' as being distinct from ''Awaous guamensis''. Consequently, Hawaiian ''Awaous'' are now recognized as a distinct species ''Awaous stamineus''. Description Males can reach a length of SL while females only reach . The body has white streaks with speckles and a dark olive color. Ecology The species is found in slow-moving waters especially on Kaua‘i Kauai, () anglicized as Kauai ( ), is geologically the second-oldest of the main Hawaiian Islands (after Niʻihau). With an area of 562.3 square miles (1,456.4 km2), it is the fourth-largest of these islands and the 21st largest island ... during their annual spawning run to the stream mouth. ‘O‘opu nakea can swim upstream ...

Awaous Stamineus
''Awaous stamineus'', commonly known as ‘O‘opu nakea, is a species of goby native to the Hawaiian Islands. It has been previously considered a synonym of ''Awaous guamensis'' but recent work based upon morphological and genetic differences has recognized Hawaiian populations as being distinct. Consequently, Hawaiian ''Awaous'' are now recognized as a valid, distinct species. Description and biology ‘O‘opu nakea are omnivores. Analyses of their gut volume have shown to consist 84% of filamentous algae and the other 16% of chironomids (non-biting midges). ‘O‘opu nakea are about 14 inches long and have white streaks with speckles and a dark olive color. They lay eggs downstream where the males and females guard the nest. The males make the nest and attract the females who then lay one clutch a year. Predators of this species include various birds, including the ‘auku‘u (black-crowned night heron), and other fishes, including āholehole (dark-margined flagtail), ulu ...
