Awaous guamensis is a species of goby native to the Pacific islands from the Marianas to Vanuatu, New Caledonia and Fiji where it can be found in fresh, brackish and marine waters. Recent work based upon morphological and genetic differences has recognized Hawaiian populations of Awaous as being distinct from Awaous guamensis.[2] Consequently, Hawaiian Awaous are now recognized as a distinct species Awaous stamineus.[3][4]
![]() | This article needs to be updated. The reason given is: much of the information in the article (some of the Description section, and the entirety of the Ecology and Human use sections) comes from references specifically to do with Hawaiian populations, which are now treated as a separate species, A. stamineus.
