Gnatholepis
''Gnatholepis'' is a genus of fish in the family Gobiidae, the gobies. It is the only marine genus in the subfamily Gobionellinae, which otherwise includes mostly estuary-dwelling and freshwater fish. ''Gnatholepis'' are tropical fish associated with sandy habitat around corals.Larson, H. K. and D. J. Buckle. (2012)A revision of the goby genus ''Gnatholepis'' Bleeker (Teleostei, Gobiidae, Gobionellinae), with description of a new species.''Zootaxa'' 3529: 1–69. Species There are currently 10 recognized species in this genus. Species include: * ''Gnatholepis anjerensis'' (Bleeker, 1851) (eye-bar goby) * ''Gnatholepis argus'' Larson & Buckle, 2005 * ''Gnatholepis caudimaculata'' Larson & Buckle, 2012 * ''Gnatholepis cauerensis'' (Bleeker, 1853) (eyebar goby) * ''Gnatholepis gymnocara'' J.

Gnatholepis Gymnocara
''Gnatholepis gymnocara'', the Nakedcheek sandgoby, is a small species of ray-finned fish in the subfamily Gobionellinae. The Naked cheek sandgoby is found primarily in the Indian Ocean along the coast of Australia .Johnson, J.W., 1999. Annotated checklist of the fishes of Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia. Memoirs of the Queensland Museum 43(2):709-762. Description The "naked cheeks," which serve as the namesake of this species, are one of the most diagnostic features of the Nakedcheek sandgoby. Scales are totally absent on the cheek and operculum, back to the predorsal midline, though there are a few typical cycloid scales on the base of the pectoral fin and on the breast.Larson, H.K. and D.J. Buckle, 2012. A revision of the goby genus Gnatholepis Bleeker (Teleostei, Gobiidae, Gobionellinae), with description of a new species. Zootaxa 3529:1-69. While a small fold might be present on the end of the lower lip, there is no truly distinct flap on the lower lip, which is als ...

Gobionellinae
The Gobionellinae are a subfamily of fish which was formerly classified in the family Gobiidae, the gobies, but the 5th Edition of ''Fishes of the World'' classifies the subfamily as part of the family Oxudercidae. Members of Gobionellinae mostly inhabit estuarine and freshwater habitats; the main exception is the genus ''Gnatholepis'', which live with corals in marine environments.Larson, H. K. and D. J. Buckle. (2012)A revision of the goby genus ''Gnatholepis'' Bleeker (Teleostei, Gobiidae, Gobionellinae), with description of a new species.''Zootaxa'' 3529: 1–69. The subfamily is distributed in tropical and temperate regions around the world with the exception of the northeastern Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Ponto-Caspian region. It includes around 370 species and 55 genera: Wikipedia articles about genera list about 389 species.
