Mudanças temporais na abundância e diversidade da fauna de peixes do infralitoral raso de uma praia, sul do Brasil

Abundance and diversity of the fish fauna in the shallow infralittoral region of Atami Beach, Paraná, Brazil, were studied through monthly collections between July 1998 and June 1999. A total of 7553 fishes from 70 species and 26 families, mainly juvenile forms, was captured in the area. The mean captures in number of species, number of fish and biomass were larger from the end of spring to the middle of autumn; seasonal tendency in richness, diversity (number) and equitability indices were not observed. The largest mean dissimilarity in the composition of the ichthyofauna occurred between June and May in comparison to the period between July and October. The species that contributed most to this dissimilarity were Selene setapinnis (Mitchill, 1815), Conodon nobilis (Linnaeus, 1758) and Stellifer rastrifer (Jordan, 1889). Three great groups reflecting patterns of temporal occurrence of the most abundant species were identified.

Ostracodes (Crustacea) from Cananéia-Iguape estuarine/lagoon system and geographical distribution of the mixohaline assemblages in southern and southeastern Brazil

The ostracode assemblages from Cananéia-Iguape estuarine/lagoon system (southernmost State of São Paulo) are here discussed in detail for the first time. Thirty-four sites, approximately 1 km equidistant, were sampled along the system, including the Cananéia Sea, Pequeno Sea, Cubatão Sea, Ribeira de Iguape River and Itapitangui River. The ostracodes throughout this area have poor assemblages, with a total of 662 specimens of dead and living organisms. The majority of the ostracode fauna is composed of euryhaline species, as follows: Cyprideis multidentata Hartmann, 1955 (174 specimens), Minicythere heinii Ornellas, 1974 (54 specimens), Tanella gracilis Kingma, 1948 (96 specimens) and Whatleyella sanguinettiae Coimbra, Carreño & Ferron, 1994 (226 specimens). Although there are few studies on the Brazilian mixohaline ostracode faunas, including the euryhaline marginal marine taxa, the published data show that the group is best known in the south and southeast regions. Based on this review and with the new data presented in this paper, the geographical distribution of eight mixohaline key species in southern and southeastern Brazil is also discussed.

Abundancia y distribución de la fauna íctica en la cuenca del río Suquía (Córdoba, Argentina)

En este trabajo se presenta la caracterización de los ensambles de peces de la cuenca del río Suquía. Los peces fueron recolectados, desde 1998 al 2002, en dieciséis sitios ubicados en los principales ríos dentro de la cuenca: arroyo San Francisco, río Cosquín, río Yuspe, río San Antonio y río Suquía. Se estimó la abundancia relativa de cada especie, riqueza, diversidad y dominancia en cada sitio estudiado. Se aplicó un Análisis Discriminante para determinar diferencias en la composición de las especies entre los ríos de la cuenca y antes y después de los principales centros urbanos. Veintiuna especies de peces fueron recolectadas en toda la cuenca, pertenecientes a doce familias y seis órdenes. Las especies mostraron diferentes patrones de variación. El Análisis Discriminante indicó marcadas diferencias de la ictiofauna entre los ríos. Si bien ellos compartieron un número elevado de especies, los patrones de abundancia de las mismas variaron entre sitios. Los resultados también demostraron el impacto negativo que ejerce la ciudad de Córdoba sobre los ensambles de peces. Este trabajo provee nuevos datos a cerca del estado de la ictiofauna del río Suquía y constituye un punto de partida que permitirá la aplicación de programas de monitoreo y evaluación con el fin de conocer la calidad de los recursos acuáticos.
