Goby histological inventory from an anatomical analysis of the development of the olfactory system (nose) and gustatory system (taste buds) in the gobies Elacatinus lori and Elacatinus colini.  Collections and experiements took place between 2011 and 2016.  Gobies were collected from reef habitats at the South Water Caye Marine Reserve and Carrie Bow Caye, Belize and reared at Boston University.
