Distribution of Pagellus erythrinus

It has a slim, oval fusiform body, with a smallish mouth and scales covering its face. The eyes are smaller than those of Pagellus bogaraveo and Pagellus acarne. It is silver in colour with a pink tinge, particularly on its back. A typical specimen measures 10–30 cm, but it can reach as much as 50 cm in length.

The common pandora is a hermaphrodite, spending the first two years of its life as a female, and the third year as a male. It is omnivorous, but mainly feeds on smaller fish and benthic invertebrates. As most fishes, the common pandora harbours a variety of parasites; for example, the nematode Philometra filiformis is a parasite of the ovary of this fish.[2]


Distribution


The fish is found along the eastern shores of the Atlantic Ocean, from Scandinavia to Cape Verde, as well as the Mediterranean and the North Sea. In terms of genetic diversity, there appears to be a high level of connectivity from the Atlantic through the Mediterranean.[3]
