Etymology: Mauligobius:From Maul, ichthyiologist that studied the fishes from Madeira and Canary Islands + Latin, gobius = gudgeon (Ref. 45335). Eponymy: Günther Edmund Maul (1909–1997) was a German ichthyologist and taxidermist who lived and worked most of his life in Madeira. [...] This is a toponym referring to the River Niger; the river (or its mouth, in the case of marine species) being the type locality. (Ref. 128868), visit book page. More on author: Günther.

Eastern Atlantic: Nigeria to Equatorial Guinea and offshore islands (Ref. 4343, 79590). Also collected from Banana (Congo River estuary), Democratic Republic of the Congo (Ref. 31982). The lack of reliable data for West African specimens suggest that it might be restricted to the Cape Verde Islands (Ref. 57403, 79590). 東大西洋: 對赤道幾內亞與離岸島嶼的奈及利亞。

成熟度: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm Max length : 7.0 cm SL 雄魚/尚未辨別雌雄; (Ref. 79590)
背棘 (總數) : 7; 背的軟條 (總數) : 10; 臀棘: 1; 臀鰭軟條: 8 - 9. Diagnosis: anterior nostril with rim process divided into several tentacles (Ref. 39517, 57403, 79590). Scales on lower cheek and operculum; 40-46 ctenoid scales in longitudinal series (including about 4-6 scales on the caudal fin base), and 15-17 in rearward transverse series; 1st dorsal fin: VI; second dorsal fin: I,10; anal fin: I,8-9; pectoral fins: 24-26, outer (dorsal) 9-10 rays short, multifid and free from membrane (Ref. 57403, 79590). Anal fin base shorter than caudal peduncle (Ref. 39517).
Coloration: Preserved specimens: head with dark mottling (Ref. 39517, 57403, 79590). Body dark, with about a dozen small spots along the lateral midline (Ref. 39517, 57403, 79590), darker in color than the background pigmentation (Ref. 57403), but lacking vertical dark bars (Ref. 39517). 1st and 2nd dorsal fins with 2-3 oblique rows of small white spots; pelvic fins/disc paler than other fins (Ref. 39517, 57403, 79590). In life: body chestnut-brown , with dorsal, caudal and pectoral fins spotted with brown; anal and pelvic fins blackish (Ref. 57403, 79590). Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal. 前鼻孔有被分開成一些觸鬚的邊緣突起; 臀鰭基底短於尾柄.(參考文獻 39517) 身體深色的, 有大約十二個小的較深色的斑點沿著側面的中線但是缺乏黑色縱帶; 頭部有深色的雜斑; 第一個與第二背鰭鰭有二或三個列斜的白色小斑點; 腹鰭體盤比其他的鰭灰白。 (參考文獻 39517)
Occurs inshore (Ref. 4343). Although possibly entering estuaries, this species is more likely a benthic inhabitant (Ref. 57403, 79590) of marine intertidal zones (Ref. 27000, 57403, 79590). Collected in shallow water among large lava-pebbles under strong wave action, and smaller examples came from a boundary area between rocks and sand at 2-4m depth (Ref. 39517). Maximum total length reported 8.7 cm (Ref. 57403).
