Sea Bass

Dicentrarchus labrax

The European seabass, also known as the branzino, European bass, sea bass, common bass, white bass, capemouth, white salmon, white mullet, sea dace or loup de mer, is a primarily ocean-going fish native to the waters off Europe's western and southern and Africa's northern coasts, though it can also be found in shallow coastal waters and river mouths during the summer months and late autumn. It is one of only six species in its family, Moronidae, collectively called the temperate basses.
