Pinnichthys is a genus of ray-finned fish from the family Gobiidae. They are found in the western Atlantic and the eastern Pacific, the genus was named in 2016.[1] Three species previously classified in the genus Chriolepis have been included in Pinnichthys.[1]

Species

Five species have been assigned to this genus:[1]

Pinnichthys aimoriensis Van Tassell & Tornabene, 2016 (Thiony's goby)
Pinnichthys atrimela (Bussing, 1997) (Black-cheek goby)
Pinnichthys bilix (Hastings & Findley 2013) (Double-filament goby)
Pinnichthys prolata (Hastings & Findley 2015) (Platform goby)
Pinnichthys saurimimica Gilmore, Van Tassell & Tornabene, 2016 (Lizardfish goby)

There are no species listed under this genus in FishBase[2] and the Catalog of Fishes classifies the Pacific species P. atrimela as Chriolepis atrimelus.[3]
