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 雄鱼/尚未辨别雌雄; (Ref. 79590)
背棘 (总数) : 7; 背的软条 (总数) : 10; 臀棘: 1; 臀鳍软条: 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. 前鼻孔有被分开成一些触须的边缘突起; 臀鳍基底短于尾柄.(参考文献 39517) 身体深色的, 有大约十二个小的较深色的斑点沿着侧面的中线但是缺乏黑色纵带; 头部有深色的杂斑; 第一个与第二背鳍鳍有二或三个列斜的白色小斑点; 腹鳍体盘比其他的鳍灰白。 (参考文献 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).
