In an ecology sense, a pandemic species is one that is widely distributed throughout a country or continent. Its opposite is endemic, meaning species only found in a particular region.
When you say endemic it means a disease that is constantly present to a greater or lesser degree in people of a certain class or in people living in a particular location while epidemic means a widespread outbreak of an infectious disease. Conclusion: Epidemic doesn't happen most of the time, it only occurs in a specific point in time unlike endemic (which is always present) in most of the time in a particular place or area.
Ebola would be an epidemic. The difference between a pandemic and an epidemic is the population size and locality of infection. An epidemic is a greater than normal amount of infection in a particular area or when infection occurs in an area that isn't normally associated with a certain disease. A pandemic is when the epidemic reaches to world wide proportions.
