A reproductive study was conducted on 320 individuals of common Pandora Pagellus erythrinus, from Oran Bayproviding information for a more understanding of the reproductive cycle. These specimens were sampled monthly during thelanding of coastal fisheries among the whole samples, 86 (29.86%), were males and 202 (70.14%) were females. The monthlysex ratio showed significant differences between males and females. Females outnumbered males at size 16.5cm and 28.5cm.high gonad index values associated with advanced stages of maturity were observed in P.erythrinus females between Apriland July, less important values were recorded in October while size at first maturity L50 for females occurred at 12.5cm.
