Abstract(s)

Twenty species of blennioide fishes have been cited from Portuguese waters. A survey of the published literature and personal observations by the authors allowed to confirm the presence of eighteen species: Clinitrachus argentatus, Labrisomus nuchipinnis, Tripterygion delaisi, Blennius ocellaris, Coryphoblennius galerita. Lipophrys canevae, L. dalmatinus, L. pholis, L. trigloides, Parablennius gattorugine, P. pilicornis, P. rouxi, P. ruber, P. incognitus, P. sanguinolentus-parvicornis, Salaria fluviatilis, S. pavo and Ophioblennius atlanticus atlanticus. A check-list is provided with information on the geographic distribution of the confirmed occurences of the blennioid species in portuguese waters.
