Biological observations on Tupiperla (Plecoptera: Gripopterygidae)

Cláudio G. Froehlich

Abstract: Tupiperla illiesi fly along the year in the coastal mountains of southeastern Brazil, with larger numbers during the warmer rainy season. In the seasonal tropical climate of Central Brazil and Serra do Cipó, MG, T oliveirai and T. gracilis, respectively, fly along the year but the pattern is still not known. In the higher elevation (ca. 1600 m a.s.l.) of Campos do Jordao, SP, species of Tupiperla may not fly during the colder months. Seasonal size variation, a phenomenon still little understood, occurred both … Show more

Body size, ecological tolerance and potential for water quality bioindication in the genus Anacroneuria (Plecoptera: Perlidae) from South America. Knowledge about the biology and ecology of neotropical aquatic taxa is crucial to establish general ecological rules and water protection systems. Based mainly on published data, the present work shows the following biological and ecological characteristics of Anacroneuria species (Klapálek 1909): a) the wide range of environmental conditions of rivers where Anacroneuria species occur, b) species number decreases along an increasing elevation gradient, c) body size increases in relation to the maximum altitude of occurrence, d) altitudinal range increases with body size, e) there is a constant relationship between male and female body size, and finally, f) larger females lay larger eggs. In temperate countries, the family Perlidae in general, and the genus Anacroneuria in particular, are viewed as excellent water quality indicators. We suggest that, considering the complexity of the group's ecology in South America, it should not be automatically considered an excellent bioindicator in the Neotropical region. Rev. Biol.

ABSTRACT. A survey of the stonef1y (Plecoptera) fauna of streams of the Almas River basin, Pirenópolis, Goiás State, Central Brazil, is presented as well as data of some factors that could affeet the temporal distribution of the adults. For checking adult phenology, light sources were used in three stations from June 1993 to Jully 1994. The sampled individuais were identified to species or morphospecies, as possible. ln this study , 30 I individuais belonging to the perlid genera Anacroneuria Klapálek, 1909, Kempnyia Klapálek, 1916 and Macrogynoplax Enderlein, 1909 were co llected. Adults of most species were eollected along lhe studied period, exeept for those of Kempnyia that were restricted to the warm-rainy season, the sarne pattem for this genus in southeastem Brazil. Although adults of most species were eolleeted along most of the studied period, the largest number of adults was eolleeted in the months with larger mean temperatures, showing a clear seasonality in abundanee.
