Distribution and habitat
The bream are widespread in all temperate and tropical waters of the world, including the Mediterranean Sea, where they are extremely common and often make up the bulk of the fish fauna of coastal areas. The area where they are represented by the greatest number of species, however, South Africa. Some sparidae are euryhaline and can be found in brackish or fresh waters. They are more frequent in coastal areas but can be found, even in large numbers in circalittoral.

Description
The form of sparidae is usually fairly uniform: the body is stretched, compressed and the sides high enough. The dorsal fin has the first spiny rays. The tail has the margin straight or bilobed. The teeth are usually very well developed, they can be canine, molariformi or incisiviformi. The livery is basically silver with spots, stripes and dark dots that make up a more fundamental importance to identify species. The sparidae deeper waters often have a red or pink background color.
Reproduction
Many species are hermaphrodites: show that male and female sexual organs, but the gonads of both sexes mature at different times so they mate fecondandosi another with another partner. Other species instead born as male specimens and aging are transformed into females (hermaphroditism proterandrous), while others are transformed into males in the group if they fail.

Supply
Most of the species is carnivorous, feeding on invertebrates, even at very hard shell such as shellfish or bivalve molluscs. Only a few large species catch small fish. Many species add to their diet plant material; in certain sparidae (like sails) plant component constitutes the vast majority of the diet.
Genera
Some of the most common species are: Diplodus sargus sargus (real seabream or greater), Diplodus vulgaris (or Banded seabream Headed), Diplodus puntazzo (Sargo picudo), Diplodus annularis (Esparrallón), Oblada melanura (Saddled seabream or Oblada), Sarpa Salpa (Salema), Sparus Aurata (Gilt Head Bream).
