Diplodus Capensis
The sargo or white seabream (''Diplodus sargus'') is a species of seabream native to the eastern Atlantic and western Indian Oceans. It is found from the Bay of Biscay southwards to South Africa, including Madeira and the Canary Islands, the Mediterranean and (rarely) the Black Sea. Occasionally individuals are found off the Indian Ocean coasts of South Africa, Mozambique and Madagascar, and they are very rarely found elsewhere in the Indian Ocean, such as off Oman. An active fish, they inhabit the surf zone, but they may be found down to 50 m. They consume small crustaceans, mollusks and some seaweed and coral, using their strong jaws to crush shells. Individuals can reach 45 cm, but average 22 cm. ''Diplodus sargus'' are protandrous hermaphrodites, with individuals starting out life as males, and some becoming female later on. It is commercially fished, with 3,713 t taken in 2008. Some are reared using aquacultural techniques. The catch is eaten immediately or mark ...

Along with other members of their family, Spottail pinfish are occasionally eaten and considered by some to be a panfish. Taxonomy and naming The Spottail pinfish was described in 1878 by Tarleton Hoffman Bean, an ichthyologist who worked mainly on the Connecticut coast. He originally placed it in the genus ''Sargus'', but it was later moved to ''Diplodus''. Bean named the Spottail pinfish after John Edwards Holbrook, a zoologist who had died 7 years before. Description Spottail pinfish are almost totally gray in color, with a large, black spot on the Anatomical terms of location#Proximal and distal, distal end of the caudal peduncle. This is similar to other members of its genus, ''Diplodus annularis'' and ''Diplodus sargus'' -though ''D. sargus'' has several vertical bars that the Spottail pinfish does not. Dis ...
