Bryaninops yongei
Bryaninops yongei is a benthic species of goby widely distributed throughout the tropical and subtropical waters of the Indian Ocean; it is commonly found living in and around coral. Although this species was discovered in 1906, its ability to propel itself quickly to escape predators makes it difficult to study.Photo: Nick Hobgood

Name consistency

[edit]

Please could someone who knows the subject better than I correct the incoherence in the common name used in this article. Sometimes it is the Whip Coral Goby, elsewhere it is the White Coral Goby, a name not mentioned in the initial paragraph nor in Taxonomy & Naming chapter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.170.229.186 (talk) 09:59, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
