- Key to the Atlantic species of Gobiosoma The following identification key is based on data compiled from many specimens examined by us and others (Böhlke & Robins 1968; Dawson 1971; Ginsburg 1933, 1939, 1942, 1944; Joyeux, Van Tassell & Macieira 2009). These records and other distribution points from Robertson & Van Tassell (2012) served as initial estimates of species ranges. These distributions were then evaluated at three IUCN Red List assessment workshops (Global Marine Species Assessment workshops in Barbados 2011, Corpus Christi 2011 and 2014), where questionable distribution points were discussed, suspected mis-identifications removed or specimens examined and re-identified if required, resulting in the ranges listed for each species below. Given the overlap in several characters, identification of a single specimen without exact locality data may not be possible. 1 a Body scales and modified basicaudal scales absent........................................................... 2 1 b Body scales and/or basicaudal scales present............................................................... 3 2 a Posterior oculoscapular pores K and L typically present; body with distinct dark and light bars, light bars thinner; series of small single spots along midline; D 2 I, 12 (I, 11 –I, 13); anal fin I, 10 (I, 9 –I, 11); pectoral fin 18 (18–19); Massachusetts to Florida, (not Florida Keys), Everglade City, Florida along Gulf of Mexico coast to Veracruz, Mexico...................
