Gobioclinus gobio is a strictly marine ray finned fish,[2] also called Gobioclinus gobio. Its common name is the palehead blenny, and is sometimes referred to as the goggle-eye blenny.[2] It can be identified by its greenish top, red belly, and multicolored banding. L. gobio is a benthic organism with a wide range, taking up residence in a number of coastal environments from Florida to Brazil.[2] This means the fish can live in equatorial, subtropical, and tropical climatic zones.[2] It is native to coastal areas of the Caribbean. Its diet consists mainly of different molluscs and echinoderms.[2]
