Abstract: Nine species of the family Gobiidae were newly recorded from Kikai-jima island, Amami Islands, Japan. Seven of the nine species, viz., Faviogobius reichei (Bleeker, 1854), Faviogobius sp.

(2013) and Gobiidae, indet. gen. and sp. 10 sensu Suzuki (2004), were based on specimens, the remaining two species, Ctenogobiops aurocingulus (Herre,1935) and Lotilia klausewitzi Shibukawa, Suzuki and Senou, 2012, were based on underwater photographs.
