Ocorrência de Alevinos de Piramutaba (Brachyplatystoma vaillantii) na Baía de Marajó

Abstract: Dentre as espécies migradoras da bacia amazônica, a piramutaba (Brachyplatystoma vaillantii) se destaca pela sua importância comercial e presumível grande distância ascendente que percorre todos os anos no rio Amazonas, na época seca (agosto-novembro).Dada a sua abundância e facilidade de captura com rede de arrasto de fundo no estuário,

“…Many hard structures have been used to determine the age of pimelodidae. Among these, otoliths, vertebrae, and fin-spines are the structures that have produced the best results (Fenerich et al, 1975;Barthem, 1990;Muñoz-Sosa, 1996;Rêgo et al, 1998;Pérez Lozáno, 1999;Loubens & Panfili, 2000;Alonso, 2002;Mateus & Petrere, 2004). Although few studies compare the age determined by various structures of the same sample, preliminary data indicate that age underestimations tend to result when based on pectoral fin-spines in comparison with those based on dorsal spines (Layher, 1981) and vertebrae (Clay, 1982).…”

“…The transport and dispersion of this catfish genus' larvae occur in the deep layers of the river Solimões/Amazonas main channel (Leite et al, 2007), and that ensures a higher probability for these individuals to reach feeding and growth areas in the estuary, as proposed by Barthem (1984) and Barthem & Goulding (1997). Unfortunately, there is little information about the downward migration processes of these eggs and larvae in the river channel.…”

“…As a result, since the 1990s both the quantity and the quality of catch in the region are decreasing. Stocks of some of the most traditional species, such as the "pirarucu", "tambaqui" (Colossoma macropomum), and the catfish "piramutaba" (Brachyplatystoma vaillantii) are now suffering a fishing-down process (Castello et al, 2011a;Castello & Stewart, 2010;Isaac et al, 1998;Welcomme, 1999;Isaac & Ruffino, 1996;Barthem & Petrere, 1995;Neves, 1995;Barthem, 1990). In addition, stocks of regionally important species such as the small catfish "mandi" (Pimelodus cf.…”
