A re-examination of the holotype of Gobius gastrospilos Bleeker, 1853 confirmed thatthis species belongs to the genus Pseudogobius Popta, 1922. The detailed redescription of Pseudogobius gastrospilos (Bleeker, 1853) would be provided in this paper. Furthermore, a series of field surveys of the gobioid fauna in brackish habitats of Taiwan revealed and summarized the following four newly recorded gobiid species: Pseudogobius gastrospilos (Bleeker, 1853), Mugilogobius chulae (Smith, 1932), Mugilogobius mertoni (Weber, 1911) and Mugilogobius myxodermus (Herre, 1935). The diagnosis of these newly recorded species of Taiwan would be also provided herein.

A new species of fat-nose goby genus Pseudogobius taijiangensis n. sp. is firstly described herein and was collected from brackish waters of Taiwan and southern China. P. taijiangensis n. sp. can be well distinguished from other congeners by the unique combinations of the following features: (1) fin rays: 2nd dorsal fin rays modally 7, anal fin rays modally 7, pectoral fin rays modally 17 and first dorsal fin rounded and lacking filaments; (2) squamation: lateral body with large ctenoid scales, longitudinal scale rows 26-28, predorsal scales modally 8; and (3) specific coloration: body with some black thin longitudinal lines; rear …
