Dartfishes are a family, Ptereleotridae, of goby-like fishes in the order Perciformes.[1] They are saltwater fish.[citation needed]

The dartfishes were formerly classified as the subfamily Ptereleotrinae of the wormfishes, Microdesmidae, but this classification made Microdesmidae polyphyletic, hence the elevation to a family within the suborder Gobioidei.[2]
