“…Studies conducted in the Amazon floodplain indicate that seasonal changes due to flood pulses modify the relative influence of lentic and lotic waters on fish community structure (JUNK 1984) and that fish communities in lentic systems seem to be temporally more stable than those in lotic systems (MERONA 1987). The constancy of our percent turnover estimates supports this idea, indicating that changes in species composition are relatively constant for all lakes that occupy the same island.…”

“…Significant differences were found in the list of species of this study in comparison with the data collected by Merona (1987), who carried out studies before the closure of the hydroelectric power dam of Tucurui, lower Tocantins basin. Twenty years after the closure of Tucurui hydroelectric power dam, a substantial reduction in richness of fish species occurred in the mid-Tocantins River.…”

“…Characterisation of ichthyofauna: According to Merona (1987), 116 species were identified in the confluence of Araguaia and Tocantins drainages before the closure of the Tucurui dam. This system, at that time allowed free communication between the main channel and tributaries favouring the natural spawning of all fish species, but with the construction of the Tucurui dam, the natural flow of Tocantins changed and the migratory fish movements become dependent on the controlled water flow by the hydroelectric power dam.…”

“…Estes índices são similares àqueles observados em outros rios amazônicos de planície de inundação, como Rio Negro (H' entre 2,46 e 4,70) (GOULDING et al 1988), Rio Juruá (H' = 5,33) (SILVANO et al 2000 e o Tocantins (H' = 4,446) (MERONA 1986).…”
