Name

Priolepis Valenciennes (ex Ehrenberg) in Cuvier & Valenciennes 1837: 67

Type species: Priolepis mica ♀ Ehrenberg 1837. Type by subsequent monotypy. [Appeared as name in synonymy of Gobius, but used as a valid name before 1931 and therefore made available back to Valenciennes 1837 by Whitley 1959].
