The present work was carried out at the Atol das Rocas (3º 51 S; 33º 49 W), the only atoll of the South Atlantic and the first Brazilian marine protected area. It was guided by the following hypothesis: the composition of the fish communities varies in agreement with the position of the pools; in other words, with or without permanent ocean connection. To test the validity of this hypothesis, the fish abundance was estimated in the connected pools (Barretinha/Barreta Falsa) and unconnected ones (Cemiteriozinho/Âncoras), carrying an ecological characterization of the fishes that inhabit these pools. Additionally, the structural complexity of the sampled places was also evaluated intending to verify the variations of the abundance and diversity of fishes in function to this factor. By the fact of this research was being carried out through the limits of a conservation unit, the samples was realized using visual census techniques. The results generated through uni and multivariate analytic techniques allowed the evidence that decisive factor in the density, richness and diversity variations of fishes are linked to the substratum type (Hard / Soft bottom) and not by the fact that the pool are or are not connected permanently to the ocean. In relation to the structural complexity; 58% of the variations in the diversity of fishes were attributed to changes in the structural complexity, while 12% of the variations in the abundance were attributed to the structural complexity

Artificial lakes must differ from natural lakes in important structural and functional aspects that need to be understood so that these ecosystems can be properly managed. The aim of this work was to test the hypothesis that the artificial lakes (impoundments) in the semi-arid region of the Rio Grande do Norte State are more eutrophic and turbid and have different trophic structure when compared to the natural coastal lakes that occur in the humid eastern coast of the State. To test this hypothesis, 10 natural lakes and 8 artificial lakes with about 100 ha were sampled between September and November 2005 for the determination of some limnological variables and the abundance of the main fish species, which were grouped in three trophic guilds: facultative piscivores, facultative planktivores and omnivores. The results show that the artificial lakes had significantly higher concentrations of total nitrogen, total phosphorus, chlorophyll a , total and volatile suspended solids than the natural lakes. Results also show that the values of pH, total alkalinity, electric conductivity, turbidity as well as the coefficient of vertical attenuation of light were significantly higher in the artificial lakes than in the natural lakes. In the artificial lakes, the abundance of facultative planktivores was significantly higher, while the abundance of facultative piscivores significantly lower than in the natural lakes. There was no significant difference in the abundance of omnivorous fish between the two types of lakes. These results suggest that the increase in turbidity together with the other changes in the water quality of the artificial lakes, modifies the trophic structure of the fish communities reducing the importance of piscivores and the length of the food chains

Os fármacos classificados como contaminantes orgânicos emergentes tornaramse tópico de discussão ambiental pois estes são capazes de atingir diferentes matrizes do meio ambiente, como água, solo e organismos aquáticos, e estudos demonstrando a toxicidade tem despertado o interesse científico. Neste estudo um método analítico foi otimizado e validado para determinação de quinze fármacos em amostras de peixes empregando preparo de amostras por dispersão da matriz em fase sólida (MSPD) assistida por vórtex e determinação por cromatografia líquida acoplada a espectrometria de massas sequencial (LC-MS/MS). O estudo ainda focou na aplicação de diferentes suportes sólidos na etapa de dispersão da MSPD, sendo que três (quitina, quitosana e concha de mexilhão dourado) foram utilizados pela primeira vez para esta finalidade, O método otimizado foi validado seguindo os parâmetros do INMETRO, ANVISA, SANCO e FDA. A curva analítica e linearidade foram avaliados através da calibração externa e superposição na matriz. Os compostos demonstraram linearidade dentro da faixa recomendada, com coeficiente de correlação maior do que 0,99. Os limites de detecção do método variaram de 1 a 100 ng g -1 , e os limites de quantificação a variaram de 5 a 1000 ng g -1 . Os valores de recuperação variaram de 68% a 108%, com RSD menores que 13% para todos os compostos. O efeito de matriz foi avaliado e quatro dos quinze compostos apresentaram efeito maior que ±20%. Na aplicabilidade o método demonstrou ser eficiente para extração de fármacos de diferentes espécies de peixe, apresentando exatidão e precisão adequados. Não foram encontrados resíduos de fármacos nas amostras analisadas.

Neste trabalho foram analisados os parâmetros cinéticos e a atividade colinesterásica de duas espécies de peixes estuarinos: a corvina Micropogonias furnieri (Teleostei, Scianidae) e o bagre Cathorops spixii (Teleostei, Ariidae), buscando avaliar o uso destas espécies como bioindicadores da presença de compostos anticolinesterásicos no meio aquático. Os exemplares de corvina e bagre, respectivamente, foram coletados nos estados do RS (Lagoa dos Patos) e PR (Baía de Paranaguá) no inverno (corvina) e verão (corvina e bagre) em dois pontos de coleta: um local controle e outro poluído. Os peixes foram anestesiados (bezocaína, 200 ppm) e os cérebros dissecados, homogeneizados e centrifugados. Foram estimados os parâmetros cinéticos (Vmax e Kmap), utilizando iodeto de acetiltiocolina como substrato, nas seguintes concentrações: 0,025; 0,05; 0,2; 0,8; 1,6; 3,2 e 9 mM. Nos estudos de inibição enzimática foi utilizado o carbamato eserina em concentrações de 0,3 a 10 mM e de 1x10-4 a 1 µM, a fim de determinar os parâmetros cinéticos de inibição e a concentração de eserina que inibia 50% da atividade colinesterásica (CI50), respectivamente. Os resultados mostraram pouca variação nos valores de Kmap nas duas espécies, porém diferenças significativas nos valores de CI50 foram observadas, indicando que a ChE do cérebro da corvina M. furnieri é resistente à inibição por eserina. Nos estudos de cinética de inibição da ChE do cérebro do bagre C. spixii, foram encontradas diferenças entre alguns parâmetros, quando foram comparados os peixes coletados no local controle com aqueles coletados no local poluído. Houve uma maior atividade colinesterásica de bagres coletados no local poluído (p<0,05), sendo que o mesmo resultado foi observado em exemplares de corvinas M. furnieri coletados durante o inverno no local poluído. Os resultados obtidos in vitro demonstram que a ChE de M. furnieri possui pouca sensibilidade à eserina. 5 Porém, o fato de ter sido registrada inibição colinesterásica nos organismos coletados durante o verão região poluída sugere a possibilidade de alterações significativas na capacidade de bio-oxidação de pesticidas nesta espécie, ou a possibilidade de inibição por outros contaminantes que também afetam a atividade colinesterásica, como por exemplo, metais. No caso de C. spixii, a determinação dos parâmetros cinéticos e de atividade colinesterásica sugere que pode estar ocorrendo alterações bioquímicas nos peixes previamente expostos a contaminantes no ambiente, provavelmente devido a respostas adaptativas ao ambiente impactado. Desta forma, o presente estudo indica a importância de estudos cinéticos prévios, quando se utiliza ou pretende utilizar, a atividade colinesterásica como bioindicador da presença de compostos anticolinesterásicos no ambiente em espécies aquáticas.

The aims of this study were: i) assessing the trophic state of the Mendubim reservoir (semi-arid, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil; 05° 38 99,0 S 36°55 98,0 W) based on chlorophyll-a, total phosphorus and nitrogen concentrations and water transparency; ii) relating the patterns of temporal variation of zooplankton and phytoplankton to the trophic state of the reservoir and iii) investigating the carrying capacity of the reservoir for cage fish farming. The samplingwas done monthly from July 2006 to July 2007 in three stations at the reservoir: next to the dam (barrage), in the central region and in the mouth of the main tributary. The abiotic and biotic variables analyzed were: Secchi depth, volatiles and fixed suspended solids, chlorophyll-a, total phosphorus and nitrogen, TN:TP ratio and mesozooplankton and phytoplankton composition and biomass. The results showed that the reservoir can be considered as mesotrophic with mean concentrations of total nitrogen, phosphorus and chlorophyll-a equal to 1711, 1 μg.L-1, 30,8 μg.L-1 and 5,62 μg.L-1 respectively. The Cyanophyceae class was the most representative in terms of density, with the presence of potentially toxic species such as Microcystis aeruginosa, Planktothrix planctonica, Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii, Aphanizomenon sp. ,Aphanocapsa delicatissima and Pseudanabaena acicularis. Among the zooplankton, the genus Notodiaptomus presented the largest biomass values. Overall, our results show that the light limitation should explain the weak relationship between chlorophyll-a and total phosphorus and nitrogen concentrations. We concluded that the water of Mendubim reservoir is suitable for intensive fish cage aquaculture. Based on the carrying capacity calculations for this reservoir, we found that the maximum sustainable yield of tilapias in cages in the reservoir is 126 ton per year assuming a factor of food conversion of 1.5: 1.0 and a phosphorus content in the fish food of 1%

Considering their commercial importance, as these are the species of freshwater fish more commercialized in Brazil, their occurence in different kinds of aquatic environments (lakes, rivers and dams) and for being tolerant to a wide range of variation of various physical parameters and chemical water, the fish species Oreochromis niloticus, Cyprinus carpio and Colossoma macropomum were chosen for this study, furthermore, to test the toxicity we used the herbicide Roundup. The fingerlings of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), commun carp (Cyprinus carpio) and tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) were submitted to the herbicide roundup in the following concentrations: 0.0 (control); 18,06; 19,10; 20,14; 21,18 and 22,22 mg.L-1, 0.0 (control); 13,89; 14,86; 15,83; 16,81 and 17,78 mg.L-1, and 0.0 (control); 18,06; 19,10; 20,14; 21,18 and 22,22 mg.L-1, respectively, three for 96 hours. The LC50 - 96h for O. niloticus, C. carpio and C. macropomum was 21,63, 15,33 and 20,06 mg.L-1 of the herbicide roundup, respectively. The results show that this herbicide is classified as slightly toxic to the three species. The values of dissolved oxygen, pH and temperature recorded in the aquarium control and aquarium experimental of the three fish species have remained without significant variations during the tests, which reduces the possibility of death caused by sudden variations of these parameters during the 96 hours the experiment. The values of LC50 between different species of fish were observed, noting that the species O.niloticus, C. carpio and C. macropomum showed no expressive differences. The values of environmental risk of Roundup were calculated to obtain more stringent parameters in assessing the dangerousness of those on nontargets. The risk of environmental contamination by Roundup for the Nile tilapia, common carp, and tambaqui are low for the lowest application rate (1 L.ha-1) and depths (1.5 and 2.0 m). The dilution of 100%, the highest recommended dose (5 L.ha-1) and depths (1.5 and 2.0 m) the risk is moderate for the three species. The values of the Risk Ratio (QR) were greater than 0,1, indicating that the values of the CAE and LC50 are above acceptable levels and there is a need, this study, a refinement in ecotoxicological tests

Ecomorphology is a science based on the idea that morphological differences among species could be associated with distinct biological and environmental pressures suffered by them. These differences can be studied employing morphological and biometric indexes denominated Ecomorphological attributes , representing standards that express characteristics of the individual in relation to its environment, and can be interpreted as indicators of life habits or adaptations suffered due its occupation of different habitats. This work aims to contribute for the knowledge of the ecomorphology of the Brazilian marine ichthyofauna, specifically from Galinhos, located at Rio Grande do Norte state. 10 different species of fish were studied, belonging the families Gerreidae (Eucinostomus argenteus), Haemulidae (Orthopristis ruber,Pomadasyscorvinaeformis,Haemulonaurolineatum,Haemulonplumieri,Haemulonsteindachneri), Lutjanidae (Lutjanus synagris), Paralichthyidae (Syaciummicrurum), Bothidae (Bothus ocellatus) and Tetraodontidae (Sphoeroidestestudineus), which were obtained during five collections, in the period time of September/2004 to April/2005, utilizing three special nets. The ecomorphological study was performed at the laboratory. Eight to ten samples of each fish specie were measured. Fifteen morphological aspects were considered to calculate twelve ecomorphological attributes. Multivariate statistical analysis methods such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Cluster Analysis were done to identify ecmorphological patterns to describe the data set obtained. As results, H.aurolineatumwas the most abundant specie found (23,03%) and S.testudineusthe less one with 0,23%. The 1st Principal component showed variation of 60,03% with influence of the ecomorphological attribute related to body morphology, while the 2nd PC with 23,25% variation had influence of the ecomorphological attribute related to oral morphology. The Cluster Analiysis promoted the identification of three distinct groups Perciformes, Pleuronectiformes and Tetraodontiformes. Based on the obtained data, considering morphological characters differences among the species studied, we suggest that all of them live at the medium (E.argenteus,O.rubber, P.corvinaeformis,H.aurolineatum,H.plumieri,H.steindachneri,L.synagris) and bottom (S.micrurum,B.ocellatus,S.testudineus) region of column water.
