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.
