The gonad morphology of a dwarfgoby Eviota susanae was described and compared with other species within the genus. Eviota susanae was found to have a persistent integrated ovotestis form of gonad in which both spermatogenic and oogenic tissue were found interspersed throughout the gonad. This is consistent with previously described species of Eviota , suggesting that gonad morphology is conserved across the genus.
