Drombus bontii is a species of goby native to the Indian Ocean from the Bazaruto Archipelago of Mozambique through to the tropical waters of the western Pacific Ocean. This species can reach a length of 7.1 centimetres (2.8 in) TL. The status of this species is questionable, with Maurice Kottelat considering it to be a junior synonym of Drombus triangularis.[1][2]
