''Redigobius'' is a genus of fish in the goby family, Gobiidae, known commonly as dualspot gobies.〔(''Redigobius''. ) Atlas of Living Australia.〕 They are native to the western Indo-Pacific region, where they occur in estuaries and freshwater habitats just above the tidal influence.〔Larson, H. K. (2010). (A review of the gobiid fish genus ''Redigobius'' (Teleostei: Gobionellinae), with descriptions of two new species. ) ''Ichthyological Exploration of Freshwaters'' 21(2), 123-91.〕 Some of these gobies are abundant fish species. The most widespread is the speckled goby (''R. bikolanus''),〔 which occurs throughout the western Pacific Ocean and from Australia to Africa.〔Froese, R. and D. Pauly (Eds.) (''Redigobius bikolanus''. ) FishBase. 2011.〕 Some ''Redigobius'' are kept as aquarium pets.〔 The Fijian endemic Lever's goby (''R. leveri'') is featured on the ten-dollar bill in the 2013 series of Fijian currency.〔Jenkins, A. P. (Fiji freshwater fish graces new 10-dollar bill: Bringing freshwater fish into the popular consciousness. ) ''Saving Freshwater Fishes and Habitats'': Newsletter of the IUCN SSC/WI Freshwater Fish Specialist Group. Issue 2. June, 2013. pg. 10.〕 ==Species== There are currently 14 recognized species in this genus.
