Hypseleotris
''Hypseleotris'' is a genus of fishes in the family Eleotridae. Most are from fresh water in Australia and New Guinea, but species in fresh and brackish water are found around islands in the western Indian Ocean, southern and eastern Africa, southern and eastern Asia, and Pacific islands. The largest species reaches a length of . They are sometimes seen in the aquarium trade; especially ''H. compressa''. In Australia they are known as carp gudgeons. The assemblage of species of this genus which occurs in the basin of the Murray-Darling river system is made up of sexually reproducing species and hybrid lineages which consiste of a single sex and which have arisen through hybridisation, a process known as hybridogenesis. The single sex species require gametes from the sexual species to reproduce and could be regarded as sexual parasites and in "closed populations" this sexual parasitism can cause the extinction of such populations.

Hypseleotris Compressa
''Hypseleotris compressa'', the empire gudgeon, is a species of Gobiiform fish in the family Eleotridae endemic to Australia and south-central New Guinea. Taxonomy Gerard Krefft described the empire gudgeon in 1864 as ''Eleotris compressus'', having been discovered by one James F. Wilcox. Description ''H. compressa'' has an elongated body which can be up to long. The males are larger than the females. The fish does not have a lateral line, but does have ctenoid scales. Its color varies, but the fish generally has a yellowish-tan to golden-brown head, although it can occasionally be a dark brown. Its abdomen is usually a whitish-red color. During the off-breeding seasons, males can be identified by prominent, variously colored bands on their anal and dorsal fins. The caudal fin is a "dusky" colour, and the pectoral and pelvic fins have no colour. During the breeding season, the male's colors brighten significantly, turning a red-orange colour, and they sometimes appear to glow. ...

Eleotridae
Eleotridae is a family of fish commonly known as sleeper gobies, with about 34 genera and 180 species. Most species are found in the tropical Indo-Pacific region, but there are also species in subtropical and temperate regions, warmer parts of the Americas and near the Atlantic coast in Africa. While many eleotrids pass through a planktonic stage in the sea and some spend their entire lives in the sea; as adults, the majority live in freshwater streams and brackish water. One of its genera, '' Caecieleotris'', is troglobitic. They are especially important as predators in the freshwater stream ecosystems on oceanic islands such as New Zealand and Hawaii that otherwise lack the predatory fish families typical of nearby continents, such as catfish. Anatomically, they are similar to the gobies (Gobiidae), though unlike the majority of gobies, they do not have a pelvic sucker.Helfman, G.S., Collette, B.B. & Facey, D.E.
