Eviota is a genus of fish in the goby family, Gobiidae. Together with members of the genus Trimma, they are known commonly as dwarfgobies or pygmygobies.[1] The genus is native to the Indo-Pacific region, where it is distributed from Japan to Australia and from Africa to Pitcairn Island.[2] Species are mainly associated with coral reefs.[2]

Some of these fish are short-lived, with life cycles as brief as 3.5 weeks in the tropics. Some species are hermaphrodites[2] and some representatives live symbiotically among the tentacles of the mushroom coral Heliofungia actiniformis.[3][4]
