Gobiopsis canalis, checkered goby is one of the rare species of the genus Gobiopsis, with information available from few specimens only. In the present study, this species has been discovered for the first time from the north-eastern Arabian Sea. Previously the species was reported from the Persian Gulf, the Gulf of Oman, Pakistan and India’s south-west coast. The presently collected specimen is only the second specimen to be collected from the entire west coast of India since 1941. Parachaeturichthys polynema is one among the most widely distributed goby along coasts of India from the Bay of Bengal to the Arabian Sea, but it had never been documented from Gujarat (1600 km) before the present study. The present study fills the gap in the distribution of G. canalis and P. polynema along the coasts of the Arabian Sea. The detailed morphometric and meristic characters of specimens are presented in the study, which are generally limited.
