Microgobius View in CoL clade

Discussion In this informal clade we combine Microgobius and the fossil otolith-based genus Magnogobius n. gen. that share a specific otolith morphology characterized by an otolith shape which is higher than long, the inner face being more or less strongly bent in the horizontal direction, and a large sulcus, often with a distinct ostial lobe and with a large subcaudal iugum.
