Info

(Linnaeus, 1758)

Dicentrarchus labrax occurs from Norway to Morocco. However, it is also occasionally found in the Mediterranean and the Black Sea.In the summer months, they tend to stay close to the coast and sometimes swim in estuaries. During the winter months, they retreat to deeper waters away from the coast.

Juveniles form larger schools, whereas in adulthood they are more likely to be found as solitary individuals. They feed mainly on shrimps and molluscs, and also on fish as they get older. This fish is also known to gourmets as “Loup de mer”.
