Hemigobius hoevenii is a small bottom-dwelling fish from the goby family. It lives in rivers and estuaries of Southeast Asia and reaches a length of about six centimeters.
Hemigobius hoevenii differs from other gobies in body shape and the structure of the sucker on the belly. This fish is important for nature because it eats small invertebrates and serves as food for larger animals.
Collects prey with its mouth directly from the ground.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
