Knipowitschia Caucasica
''Knipowitschia caucasica'', the Caucasian dwarf goby, is a species of goby native to marine, fresh and brackish waters along the coasts of the Black Sea, the Sea of Azov, the Caspian Sea and the Aegean Sea and to the Haliacmon drainage of Greece. It inhabits shallow waters () with plentiful weed growth where it can find its prey consisting of small crustaceans, the larvae of chironomids and the larvae of the mussel ''Dreissena polymorpha''. Spawning takes place after their first winter with the eggs being deposited onto the roof of a cavity formed by rocks, shells or plant materials. The male will remain to defend the eggs. This species can reach a length of fish measurement, TL References Notes Knipowitschia, Caucasian dwarf goby Fish of the Mediterranean Sea Fish of the Black Sea Fish of Europe Fish of Asia Fish of the Caspian Sea Taxonomy articles created by Polbot Fish described in 1916 {{Gobiidae-stub ...

Knipowitschia Goerneri
the Corfu dwarf goby (''Knipowitschia goerneri'') is a species of freshwater goby endemic to the island of Corfu in western Greece. This species can reach a length of SL. This species was only recorded from a single spring and was considered to have been last recorded in 1983 but surveys in the 1990s failed to find any, it was incorrectly thought that the spring which was the type locality had been affected by water abstraction which may have caused an increase in salinity, but the species had not been recorded at the affected spring. In 2014, nine specimens of Corfu dwarf goby were collected from Korission Lagoon in southern Corfu. The specific name honours Manfred Görner, who supported the author's ichthyological Ichthyology is the branch of zoology devoted to the study of fish, including bony fish (Osteichthyes), cartilaginous fish ( Chondrichthyes), and jawless fish ( Agnatha).
