Abstract
Acanthemblemaria aspera is a shallow water species that has not been found in the Santa Marta region (Colombia). Acantina betinensis is an endemic of the southern Caribbean which inhabits empty worm holes in dead corals. Acantina rivasi is a shallow water form that inhabits empty barnacle shells. Ekemblemaria nigra is rare in the Colombian Carribbean. Lucayablennius zingaro is common below 20 m at Islas del Rosario (Colombia), but is absent from the Santa Marta region.
