Gobiesox
''Gobiesox'' is a genus of clingfishes found in the Americas, including offshore islands. Most species inhabit coastal marine and brackish waters, but ''G. lanceolatus'' is a deep-water species found at a depth of around , and seven species (''G. cephalus'', ''G. fluviatilis'', ''G. fulvus'', ''G. juniperoserrai'', ''G. juradoensis'', ''G. mexicanus'' and ''G. potamius'') are from fast-flowing rivers and streams. These seven are the only known freshwater clingfish. The genus includes both widespread and common species, and more restricted species that are virtually unknown. Three freshwater species that are endemic to Mexico (''G. fluviatilis'', ''G. juniperoserrai'' and ''G. mexicanus'') are considered threatened by Mexican authorities, and three species that are endemic to small offshore islands (''G aethus'' and ''G. canidens'' of the Revillagigedo Islands, and ''G. woodsi'' of Cocos Island) are considered vulnerable by the IUCN.

Clingfish
Clingfishes are fishes of the family Gobiesocidae, the only family in the order Gobiesociformes. These fairly small to very small fishes are widespread in tropical and temperate regions, mostly near the coast, but a few species in deeper seas or fresh water. Most species shelter in shallow reefs or seagrass beds, clinging to rocks, algae and seagrass leaves with their sucking disc, a structure on their chest. They are generally too small to be of interest to fisheries, although the relatively large '' Sicyases sanguineus'' regularly is caught as a food fish, and some of the other species occasionally appear in the marine aquarium trade. Distribution and habitat Clingfishes are primarily found near the shore in the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans, including marginal seas such as the Mediterranean, Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean and Gulf of California. The greatest species richness is in tropical and warm temperate regions, but the range of a few extends into colder waters, lik ...

It is a solitary species which feeds on fishscales, insects and small fish. It is the type species if the genus ''Gobiesox'' and was described by Bernard Germain de Lacépède in 1800 with ''Amérique méridionale'' (Central America) given as the type locality.
