Sažetak
The first record of Gobius incognitus Kovačić & Šanda, 2016 was reported from Malta. Two
specimens were collected at the island of Gozo and stored as unidentified in 2012, several years
before the description of Gobius incognitus. A decade later the material was finally identified
based on morphology and coloration pattern of preserved specimens. The habitat preferences and
geographic distribution of this species are discussed.
