families of fish, with more than 2,000 species in more than 200
genera.Most are relatively small, typically less than 10 cm (4 in)
in length. Gobies include some of the smallest vertebrates in the world,
such as species of the genera Trimmatom nanus and Pandaka pygmaea,
which are under 1 cm (3/8 in) long when fully grown... (Wikipedia)
