The dwarf pygmy goby or Philippine goby[2] (Pandaka pygmaea) is a tropical species of fish in the subfamily Gobionellinae from brackish water and mangrove areas in Southeast Asia.[1][3] It is one of the smallest fish species in the world. Males reach maturity at a standard length of 0.9 cm (0.35 in) and can reach up to 1.1 cm (0.43 in) in standard length, while the females can grow up to 1.5 centimetres (0.59 in) in total length.[3] Adults weigh around 4 milligrams (0.00015 oz).[4] It is known as bia and tabios in the Philippines.[5]
