"Bothus podas", also known as the wide-eyed flounder, is a flounder in the genus "Bothus", native to the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Coast of Africa. During the reproductive season, males court and mate successively with females in their territories, and females seem to show mating fidelity to their dominant male. Data also show that courtship plays an important role in determining male success in mating.
