Gobioninae

Gobioninae is a monophyletic[1] subfamily of Eurasian cyprinid fishes. A species-rich subfamily, it is divided into five tribes: Gobionini, Pseudogobionini, Hemibarbini, Coreiini and Sarcocheilichthyini.

white-finned gudgeon (Romanogobio belingi).

In order to adapt to different masticatory operations, members of Gobioninae developed various types of pharyngeal bones and teeth: some have intermediate pharyngeal bones with rows of diverse teeth (conical, and compressed and coarsely compressed), others have broad pharyngeal bones with a single row of molar teeth.[2] There are also Gobioninae having narrow pharyngeal bones with a row of extremely compressed teeth.[2]

Genera

The following genera are included in the subfamily Gobioninae according to Fishbase:[3]

gollark: Do you have much of an end state in mind beyond "avoid all close contact forever"?
gollark: Freedom of speech but the government implodes anyone who says things they don't like isn't.
gollark: It does mean no government-imposed consequences or it is very meaningless.
gollark: So it's clearly bad.
gollark: Apparently scientists spend a large fraction of their time applying for grants.
