To adapt to different masticatory operations, members of the Gobioninae developed various types of pharyngeal bones and teeth; some have intermediate pharyngeal bones with rows of diverse teeth (conical, compressed, and coarsely compressed), others have broad pharyngeal bones with a single row of molar teeth.[2] Some Gobioninae have narrow pharyngeal bones with a row of extremely compressed teeth.[2]

Genera

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