Etymology: Istigobius: Greek, istios = sail + Latin, gobius = gudgeon (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Charles Francis Spence (1907–1982) was a businessman in Mozambique, the type locality, whom Smith thanked for providing personal assistance. Spence later published: The Portuguese Colony of Moçambique: an Economic Survey (1951). (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Espinhos dorsais (total) : 7; Raios dorsais (total) : 10 - 11; Espinhos anais: 1; Raios anais : 9 - 10; Vértebras: 26. Pectoral fin rays entire. Predorsal cycloid scale 7-10, ctenoid on trunk. Few spots on nape; a dusky line running from eye dorsal to sensory pore path, ending at or before pectoral fin base; wavy brown lines on the snout. Pelvic and distal part of anal fins darker in males than in females. Appressed anal fin reaching within a distance of 1-2 scales of caudal fin in male, 2-4 scales in female; appressed 2nd dorsal slightly overlapping caudal in male. Some males exhibit 3-4 vertical bars on abdomen and 2-3 horizontal bars in 1st dorsal fin (Ref. 420); longitudinal scale series 30-32; no scales on cheek and opercle; body depth 4.9-6.1 in SL (Ref. 90102).
