Etymology: Stenogobius: Greek, stenos = narrow + Latin, gobius = gudgeon (Ref. 45335); fehlmanni: The species was named for H. Adair Fehlmann for his contributions to ichthyology, as well as collecting most of the type material (Ref. 34009).
Eponymy: Dr Herman Adair Fehlmann (1917–2005) of George Vanderbilt Foundation, Bangkok, and the Smithsonian was primarily an ichthyologist but also an herpetologist. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00977 (0.00444 - 0.02153), b=3.04 (2.85 - 3.23), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.5 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
