Abundance of cladocerans in the littoral regions of two environments of the Upper Paraná River floodplain, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil

Abstract: The abundance of cladocerans recorded in plankton samples from the littoral regions of two enviroments (Baía River and Guaraná lake), the Upper Paraná River floodplain and some limnological variables important in controlling their abundance were investigated at three sites in the lake and two in the river, from March/93 to January/94. Abundance was highest in the lake, chiefly during high water. Bosminidae dominated in both environments and hydrological periods (high and low water). Chydoridae were more import… Show more

“…Lansac‐Tôha et al. (1997) and Rossa et al. (2001) pointed out that B. deitersi is one of the most abundant Cladoceran species in the Paraná floodplains, occurring frequent in lentic, semi‐lotic and lotic environments.…”

“…B. deitersi in another lake (Lake Dourada) exhibited the highest productivity during the rainy season (Melão & Rocha 2004). Lansac-Tôha et al (1997) and Rossa et al (2001) pointed out that B. deitersi is one of the most abundant Cladoceran species in the Paraná floodplains, occurring frequent in lentic, semi-lotic and lotic environments. The absence of B. deitersi in Lake Camargo, and its low density in Lake Coqueiral, in January is an intriguing observation.…”

“…Rossa et al (2001) encontraron una gran abundancia de individuos de la familia Chydoridae dentro de las macró-fitas, reforzando que su preferencia hacia dicho hábitat puede estar relacionada con la gran cantidad de detritus que origina la descomposición de estas plantas, que se constituye en una gran disponibilidad de materia orgánica. A pesar de que en diversidad dominaron las formas de hábitos litorales, la densidad estuvo dominada por Moina minuta, especie planctónica, endémica de la región Neotropical, de amplia distribución y hallada frecuentemente en este tipo de sistemas (Gavilán-Díaz 2000).…”

“…However the occurrence, during the rainy seasons, when nutrient inputs was maximum, of several taxa (Filinia opoliensis, Filinia terminalis, Ceriodaphnia cornuta, Diaphanosoma excisum, Moina micrura, Thermocyclops sp., etc.) often associated with hypertrophic water (Arcifa et al, 1992;Attayde & Bozelli, 1998;Rossa et al 2001;Corgosinho & Pinto-Coelho, 2006;Landa et al, 2007) suggests a trend toward a state of eutrophication. Even if these taxa are still relatively little abundant, their occurrences must catch our attention and a monitoring of their dynamics should usefully be applied to detect possible eutrophication events.…”
