“…Pristina proboscidea Beddard, 1896 (Figure 2g) In South America this species has been reported in Chile, Argentina, Paraguay, Peru, Colombia, Suriname and Brazil, where it has been reported by Corbi et al (2005) and Gorni & Alves (2008a) on the state of São Paulo, by Takeda (1999) in the upper Paraná River and by Takeda et al (2000) in the Pantanal in Mato Grosso do Sul. It has also been reported in North America, Asia, Africa and Australia.…”

Data resulting from species inventories shed light on the richness and distribution of various groups. In Minas Gerais, work on inventory and distribution of the oligochaetes of lotic environments in preserved areas are non-existent. Therefore, this study aimed to inventory the limnic oligochaetes fauna of first-order streams located in four preserved areas, to expand knowledge of the ecology and distribution of this group. In total, 19 taxa were inventoried, belonging to the families Naididae and Enchytraeidae and the superorder Megadrili (earthworms), with the genus Pristina having the largest number of species. The number of species found in this investigation corresponds to 22% of oligochaetes species recorded in Brazilian aquatic environments. The results obtained add important knowledge of the distribution of some oligochaetes species in Brazil, represent the first records of species for the four preserved areas studied and confirm the first occurrence of various species in the state.

Em Minas Gerais, trabalhos sobre inventário e distribuição de oligoquetas de ambientes lóticos em áreas preservadas são inexistentes. Dessa forma, este estudo objetivou inventariar a fauna de oligoquetas límnicos de córregos de primeira ordem localizados em quatro áreas preservadas, visando ampliar as informações sobre ecologia e distribuição deste grupo. Foram inventariados 19 taxa pertencentes às famílias Naididae, Enchytraeidae e à superordem Megadrili, sendo o gênero Pristina o de maior número de espécies. O número de espécies encontradas neste trabalho corresponde a 22% das espécies de oligoquetas registrados em ambientes aquáticos brasileiros. Os resultados obtidos ampliam o conhecimento sobre a distribuição de algumas espécies de oligoquetas no Brasil, representam os primeiros registros de espécies para as quatro áreas preservadas estudadas e confirmam a primeira ocorrência de várias espécies no Estado. Palavras-chave : biodiversidade, Campos Rupestres, Mata Atlântica, Naididae, folhiço, oligoquetas, Enchytraeidae. Martins et al. ( , 2011 and Suriani-Affonso et al. (2011), the number in the state has increased to 23. The true number is probably even higher, because ecological studies often record new species not considered in official records. In this context, the present study aimed to inventory the limnic oligochaete fauna in first-order streams in preserved areas, to expand the information about the ecology and distribution of this group.

“…Gorni & Alves (2006) found a low abundance of N. communis from P. bridgesii. In Brazil, this species has previously been found in association with sediments of rivers , streams (Alves & Lucca 2000), macrophytes (Trivinho-Strixino et al 2000), sponges (Corbi et al 2005) and bryophytes (Gorni & Alves 2007).…”

“…Due to their great ability to swim, they are capable of exploring benthic habitats (Erséus & Gustavsson 2002) such as aquatic macrophytes (Jones et al 2000), sponges (Corbi et al 2005), Odonata larvae (Corbi et al 2004) and mollusks (Buse 1972). It was the aim of this study to verify the presence of Naididae species associated with three species of gastropod mollusks.…”

Abstract:In the present study we report the occurrence of three Naididae species from three gastropod mollusk species. The species Dero (Dero) righii was found from mollusks of the genus Biomphalaria. Nais communis was found from Biomphalaria sp. and Aplexa rivalis. Chaetogaster limnaei was found from Biomphalaria sp., Aplexa rivalis and Lymnaea columella. In Brazil, previous studies have reported the occurrence of Chaetogaster limnaei from Biomphalaria solely, while Nais communis have been found from Pomacea bridgesii and Dero (Dero) righii in the sediment of aquatic habitats in Mato Grosso do Sul. Our results indicate that, due to their locomotion, naidids are capable of colonizing different substrates in aquatic environments.

“…The studies of Kahl and Konopacka (1981), Righi (1984), Corbi et al (2004Corbi et al ( , 2005 and Gorni and Alves (2006) refer to the association of Chaetogaster species with aquatic invertebrates. The association between Chaetogaster limnaei K. von Baer, 1927 and various species of gastropod mollusks has been reported many times (Gruffydd, 1965a;Andrade and Campos, 1968;Buse, 1972Buse, , 1974Conn et al, 1995;Agbolade et al, 2007;Ibrahim, 2007;Fried et al, 2008), however the nature of this relationship has not yet been clearly defined (Callisto et al, 2005).…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the presence of Chaetogaster limnaei K. von Baer, 1927 in four species of mollusks collected in irrigation channels of a horticultural garden in the city of Juiz de Fora, Minas Gerais State, Southeastern Brazil. The collections were made from June 2005 to January 2006. Of the four species of mollusks analysed, we could not detect the presence of C. limnaei in Pomacea lineata (Spix, 1827). There were recorded 320 specimens of C. limnaei in association with Aplexa rivalis Mastou & Rackett, 1898, Lymnaea columella Say, 1818 and Biomphalaria sp., the latter having the highest number of associated Naididae.
