Etymology: Crystallogobius: Latin, cristallum = ice + Latin, gobius = gudgeon (Ref. 45335).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologia
marino demersale; non migratori (Ref. 4696); distribuzione batimetrica 1 - 400 m (Ref. 35388). Temperate; 70°N - 35°N, 11°W - 25°E
Eastern Atlantic: Lofotens, Norway, to Gibraltar. Also known from the Mediterranean Sea. Eastern Central Atlantic: Madeira Island (Ref. 74541).
Size / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 4.7 cm SL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 4696); 3.9 cm SL (female); Età massima riportata: 1.00 anni (Ref. 232)
Spine dorsali (totale) : 2 - 3; Raggi dorsali molli (totale) : 18 - 20; Spine anali: 1; Raggi anali molli: 20 - 21. Patterns of sensory papillae require detailed description. Pronounced sexual dimorphism. Anterior nostril a short tube. Pectoral fin uppermost rays within membrane. Males: with prominent front canine teeth; pelvic disc complete and deep; 1st dorsal with only 2 with rays. Females: pelvic disc reduced or lacking; 1st dorsal absent or rudimentary. Vertebrae 30(29-31).
Benthic and free swimming (Ref. 92840). This occasionally territorial species occurs in coastal waters, over shell, sand, or mud bottoms; males bottom-living during breeding season. Feed on zooplankton (Ref. 5204). Spawning takes place when 1 year old. Adults die afterwards. Eggs are laid in the empty tube-worms and are guarded by the male (Ref. 35388). Eggs are pear-shaped (Ref. 4696).
Males guard eggs in empty tubes of larger worms, such as Chaetopterus. Adults die after breeding (Ref. 4696).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 6.8 - 14.3, mean 9.8 °C (based on 546 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00724 (0.00338 - 0.01553), b=3.05 (2.87 - 3.23), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.4 ±0.45 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 1.1 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1
growth studies.
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (tm=1; tmax=1; Fec=340).
