“…No entanto, trabalhos que avaliaram a ictiofauna em áreas costeiras no sudeste do Brasil, utilizando diferentes métodos de amostragem, apresentaram riqueza de espécies muito próximas dos valores obtidos em Itaipu. ANDREATA et al (2002) registraram 148 espécies na Baía da Ribeira (RJ), enquanto que PAIVA- FILHO et al (1987), amostrando o complexo baía-estuário de Santos, forneceram uma lista de 140 espécies de peixes.…”

ABSTRACT. Associations of fishes in the coastal region of Itaipu, Niterói. The coastal region of Itaipu, Rio de Janeiro forms a partially sheltered sound, protected by three islands, but still maintaining full communication with the open sea. The sound also receives fresh water input from the Itaipu-Piratininga lagoon system, constituting an area of intense artisanal fisheries. Using data from monthly monitoring of the artisanal fisheries (beach seining, gill netting and hand lining), experimental surf zone beach seine surveys, underwater visual census (Menina, Mãe, and Pai islands), and a multisampling experiment at Itaipu Lagoon, we elaborated a list of fish species occurring in the region, observing their connectivity with different local habitats, including the sound, rocky reefs, the surf zone and Itaipu Lagoon. We identified 183 species including 26 Elasmobranchii, grouped in 13 families, and 157 Actinopterygii grouped in 63 families. The artisanal beach seining caught the greatest number of species (112), followed by the gill netting (94) and hand lining (35). The surf zone beach seining ("picaré") yielded 49 species (8 exclusive) represented mostly by juvenile fish and species of little economic importance. Visual censuses resulted in 41 species identified, with 21 exclusive and most of them cryptic. Within the Itaipu lagoon, 46 species were recorded, 18 exclusive and of occasional occurrence. Cluster analysis including 106 non exclusive species resulted in the formation of eight different groups. Groups A and B were composed by species captured exclusively by the artisanal fisheries within the sound, and included species of commercial interest. Group C included species occurring in the fisheries whose juveniles are found in the surf zone. Group D classified species of common occurrence in the fisheries and the islands. Group E was represented by species shared by the fisheries and Itaipu lagoon (mullets, mojarras, herrings). Species from group F were absent in the islands, those from group G in the lagoon, and those from group H were common to all areas considered. Compared with other coastal areas in southeastern Brazil, Itaipu represents an important concentration area for fish biological diversity and biomass, yielding species associations and connectivity between the different local habitats. KEYWORDS.Itaipu, species list, fishes, artisanal fisheries, habitat connectivity. RESUMO.A região costeira de Itaipu, Rio de Janeiro é guarnecida por três ilhas, formando uma enseada semi-abrigada porém com ampla comunicação com o mar. Esta enseada recebe o aporte de águas do complexo lagunar Itaipu-Piratininga, além da influência de massas d'água oceânicas, constituindo uma área de intensa atividade pesqueira artesanal. Utilizando-se dados provenientes do monitoramento mensal da pesca artesanal (arrastos-de-praia, redes de emalhe e linha de mão), de arrastos experimentais em zona de arrebentação, censos visuais sub-aquáticos (ilhas da Menina, Mãe e Pai) e um experimento multiamostral na lagoa de Itaipu, elabor...

“…We chose not to use the South American Western Atlantic fish records [ 88 ]; instead, specific references of modern fish diversity and abundance in the littoral areas close to the shellmounds of Rio de Janeiro were obtained from Arraial do Cabo [ 58 , 93 , 94 ], Itaipu [ 77 , 95 ] and Ribeira Bay in Angra dos Reis [ 96 ], and these were used in comparisons with fishery records.…”

Brazilian shellmounds are archaeological sites with a high concentration of marine faunal remains. There are more than 2000 sites along the coast of Brazil that range in age from 8,720 to 985 cal BP. Here, we studied the ichthyoarchaeological remains (i.e., cranial/postcranial bones, otoliths, and teeth, among others) at 13 shellmounds on the southern coast of the state of Rio de Janeiro, which are located in coastal landscapes, including a sandy plain with coastal lagoons, rocky islands, islets and rocky bays. We identified patterns of similarity between shellmounds based on fish diversity, the ages of the assemblages, littoral geomorphology and prehistoric fisheries. Our new radiocarbon dating, based on otolith samples, was used for fishery characterization over time. A taxonomical study of the ichthyoarchaeological remains includes a diversity of 97 marine species, representing 37% of all modern species (i.e., 265 spp.) that have been documented along the coast of Rio de Janeiro state. This high fish diversity recovered from the shellmounds is clear evidence of well-developed prehistoric fishery activity that targeted sharks, rays and finfishes in a productive area influenced by coastal marine upwelling. The presence of adult and neonate shark, especially oceanic species, is here interpreted as evidence of prehistoric fisheries capacity for exploitation and possibly overexploitation in nursery areas. Various tools and strategies were used to capture finfish in seasonal fisheries, over rocky reef bottoms and in sandy littoral environments. Massive catches of whitemouth croaker, main target dermersal species of South Atlantic coast, show evidence of a reduction in body size of approximately 28% compared with modern fisheries. Fishery activity involving vulnerable species, especially in nursery areas, could mark the beginning of fish depletion along the southeastern Brazilian coast and the collapse of natural fish populations.

“…Mercury concentrations are very low in surface sediment (28 to 53 ng.g -1 ) and in fish (<200 ng.g -1 ) (Cardoso et al, 2001). There is no record for disturbances on fish assembly during the last years and up today were registered 52 fish families, like Ariidae, Haemulidae e Sciaenidae (Andreata et al, 2002).…”

Several studies have evaluated human risks due mercury (Hg) exposure through fish consumption. However, relatively few studies have explored effects of environmental Hg concentrations in biota, especially tropical fish species. The aim of this work was to assess in situ hematological, biochemical and genotoxic effects in tropical fish due to environmental exposure to mercury in estuarine ecosystems. A total of 282 fishes were collected from September 2003 to October 2005 in two estuarine areas: Ribeira Bay (reference area-22° 55' to 23° 02' S and 44° 18' to 44° 26' W) and Guanabara Bay (highly impacted area by human activities-22° 40' to 23° 00' S and 43° 00' to 43° 20' E). Total mercury levels in fish from Guanabara were twice higher than in Ribeira bay for the catfish species Genidens genidens (Ariidae), with significant differences among areas after standardization using length intervals (exposure time indicator). The species Haemulon steindachneri (Haemulidae) showed the highest mercury concentration, reflecting its position in trophic chain. Among effect biomarkers, only haematocrit, global leucometry and micronucleus assays seemed to reflect the differences on mercury exposure among areas, what may support their use for evaluations of fish exposure to mercury compounds. However, it's necessary both laboratory experiments to establish cause-effect relationship and a continuous in situ study to obtain more information, involving more trophic levels, searching for sensible species to mercury exposure.
