The fish is named in honor of Carter R. Gilbert (1930-2022), who was the Curator of Fishes at the Florida Museum of Natural History from 1961 to 1998, because of his many contributions to the study of North American fishes. [3] Elasoma gilberti is closely related to E. okefenokee, and the two species are nearly indistinguishable in appearance.
The Gulf killifish is found in the Atlantic Ocean, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Caribbean Sea, and over the Southeast United States Continental Shelf. [10] The normal range of Gulf killifish is from Texas to the western coast of Florida and from the east coast of Florida and throughout the Caribbean. [5]
The actual species claimed to be responsible for the attack was a type of piranha, [13] as 'palometa' is a general common name used for many species of serrasalmids (including several piranhas) in South America.

Invariably, b is close to 3.0 for all species, and c is a constant that varies among species. [5] A weight-length relationship was determined for a sample of 1,984 Florida pompano collected along the Gulf Coast of Florida between 2000 and 2002. [6] The fish sampled ranged in length from 79 to 481 mm (3.16-19.24 in).
The gulf pipefish is a marine-estuarine species. It commonly inhabits shallow, highly vegetated shoreline areas with clear, tannin-stained streams and rivers. They also commonly inhabit estuarine seagrass meadows. [6] However, their species population have been declining due to the impact of growing human (Homo sapiens) population size
