The gunnel family Pholididae is one of the most specialized groups of the northern blennies distributed in the North Pacific, the North Atlantic, and the Arctic Oceans. They generally live on the bottom and occupy littoral and coastal sea shore habitats. Since the Pholididae lack conspicuous external characters such as complicated lateral lines or fleshy crests, they are still confused with other members of the northern blennies, e. g., with Opisthocentrinae by GREENWOOD et al. (1966). Compared to external morphology, internal features such as the hemanephrapophyses (MAKUSHOK, 1958) are unique among the northern blennies and supply the definitive information on monophyly (sensu HENNIG, 1966). As the first step in trying to elucidate the phylogenetic relationship and the diversity of the Pholididae and to offer some aid for the northern blenny classification, this taxonomic review is made below.
