Abstract
Redigobius fotuno sp. nov., described from a limestone sinkhole on Muna Island, Southeastern Sulawesi, Indonesia, is most similar to Redigobius penango (Popta 1922), endemic to the Sulawesi mainland, both species having a robust body and rounded head, reticular body color pattern, and longitudinal suborbital papillae rows. However, the new species is distinguished from the latter in having greater head length (35.3–38.4% of standard length [SL]), upper jaw length (14.7–20.0% of SL) and predorsal length (43.4–46.0% of SL), and a slender pelvic disc with thin frenum (length: 21.7–26.2% of SL; base width: 4.2–6.3% of SL). These unique morphological characters of R. fotuno sp. nov. may be related to the limnetic habitat of the species.
期刊介绍：
Ichthyological Research is an official journal of the Ichthyological Society of Japan and is published quarterly in January, April, July, and November. Ichthyological Research primarily publishes research papers on original work, either descriptive or experimental, that advances the understanding of the diversity of fishes. Ichthyological Research strives to cover all aspects of fish biology, including taxonomy, systematics, evolution, biogeography, ecology, ethology, genetics, morphology, and physiology.
