“…The findings of the monitoring performed in the present study corroborates with the importance of Sciaenidae both in terms of the number of species represented (17%) and species abundance (16.3%); M. furnieri and M. martinicensis together accounted for 10% of the specimens caught. Similarly, Carangidae had high richness (13.3%) and abundance (9.7%), like Ariidae (6% and 15.7%, respectively); in the study byDias et al (2017) in the Bertioga channel, the same estuarine complex studied here, C. spixii was the most abundant species recorded.…”

“…Although the upper Santos-São Vicente estuary is of considerable economic importance, only five studies (Luederwaldt, 1919;Braga, 2013;Santos et al, 2015;Souza, 2017) of the composition and ecological interactions of its ichthyofauna have been published to date. However, in other areas of the Santos-São Vincente estuary-bay and Bertioga channel complex (SSEBBC), several studies have been carried out (Vazzoler, 1970;Paiva-Filho, 1982;Paiva-Filho & Schmiegelow, 1986;Paiva-Filho & Toscano, 1987;Ribeiro-Neto, 1989;Giannini & Paiva-Filho, 1990;Lopes et al, 1993;Ribeiro-Neto, 1993;Giannini & Paiva-Filho, 1995;Fagundes et al, 2007;Schmidt et al, 2008;Rocha, 2009;Barbanti et al, 2013;Dias et al, 2014;Rocha & Dias, 2015;Santos et al, 2015;Caetano, 2016;Dias et al, 2017;Carminatto et al, 2020;Rotundo, 2020).…”

Studies accounting the ichthyofauna composition of the Santos-São Vincente estuary-bay and Bertioga channel complex (SSEBBC) are scarce, even with its high ecological and economical importance. In this sense, the present study performed a checklist of the ichthyofauna from the SSEBBC aiming to report the distribution, diet, habitat, economic importance, and conservation status of the collected fish species. Twenty-four (24) monthly collecting campaigns were conducted between March 2013 and February 2015. In each survey, four locations around Bagres Island were sampled with the aid of gill nets with standardized effort. Dead fish specimens were also collected during the accidental fire that occurs on the Terminal Químico de Aratú S.A. (TEQUIMAR) between April 2nd and 10th of 2015. A total of 172 fish specimens were collected, where 50.6% were carnivorous; 35.5% were marine-estuarine; 44.2% with high occidental Atlantic Ocean distribution; 44.8% were a high important food resource. Regarding the conservation status, these fish species were classified as “low-worries” in 76.2% for the global evaluation; 95.3% in national evaluation; and 55.2% in São Paulo State evaluation. Moreover, 53 new fish species were catalogued for the Santos-São Vincente estuary-bay, where 12 were collected during the field monitoring and 41 during the fire monitoring. Fifty-eight (58) fish species collected during the field campaigns were categorized like “insufficient data”; 3 as alien species (Oreochromis niloticus, Opsanus beta e Butis koilomatodon); and there was a rare record of Megalops atlanticus in São Paulo State. Besides of the high anthropization, the studied area presented high fish species richness and should be monitored to ensure the fish species conservation status.

“…As estimativas do comprimento de primeira maturação (L 50 ) dessas espécies não são encontradas no CSC, ocorrendo essa informação apenas para a espécie O. oglinum, em que 3% dos exemplares apresentaram comprimentos superiores ao L 50 . A obtenção dessas espécies com maioria de indivíduos jovens também ocorreu em outros estuários tropicais e subtropicais do Brasil (Giarrizzo et al, 2006;Contente;Stefanoni & Spach, 2011;Vaz-dos-Santos & Rossi-Wongtschowski, 2013;Dias et al, 2017;Costa;Tubino & Monteiro-Neto, 2018;Cattani et al, 2020).…”

Os estuários são habitats favoráveis à ocupação por diversas espécies de peixes em virtude da disponibilidade de abrigo e alimentação. Entre as diversas ferramentas de gestão de recursos pesqueiros, os estudos baseados em tamanho dos espécimes são úteis para a melhor compreensão da estrutura das comunidades estuarinas e podem ser associados aos aspectos reprodutivos e de seletividade dos aparelhos de captura aplicáveis à mitigação dos efeitos da sobrepesca. No presente estudo, os comprimentos das espécies de peixes capturadas com rede de emalhar foram avaliados espacialmente em um estuário tropical no estado de Pernambuco, em trechos horizontais (centro e margens) e profundidades (superior, intermediário e inferior) entre julho de 2013 e junho de 2014. Entre as espécies de peixes mais capturadas, a predominância de indivíduos jovens foi maior nas espécies Chloroscombrus chrysurus, Harengula clupeola, Lycengraulis grossidens, Opisthonema oglinum e Anchovia clupeoide, que apresentaram comprimento médio de 6,47 cm, 9,59 cm, 9,93 cm, 11,25 cm e 12,17 cm respectivamente. A exceção foi a Strongylura marina, em que ocorreram indivíduos adultos (42,43 cm). No período de seca, a representatividade de indivíduos maiores ocorreu apenas para a O. oglinum e A. clupeoides, mas esses foram duas vezes menores do que os encontrados na década de 1970. Portanto, há necessidade de implementação de medidas que visem à proteção do estuário do Canal de Santa Cruz, objetivando a preservação dos estoques pesqueiros dessa região.Palavras-chave: Clupeidae, pesca artesanal, peixes pelágicos, rede de emalhar.

“…Obtaining knowledge on the ecology of these species is crucial since fishing pressure and habitat degradation on coastal and inner shelf regions have disturbed the ichthyofauna, resulting in population depletion, diversity loss, and ecosystem unbalancing (Imoto et al, 2016;Dias et al, 2017;Prado et al, 2019;Rolim et al, 2019;Trevizani et al, 2019). Thus, the present study aimed to assess the functionality and effectiveness of the two MPAs to assist the decision making process that involves the conservation of demersal elasmobranchs.…”

Functionality and Effectiveness of Marine Protected Areas in Southeastern Brazilian Waters for Demersal Elasmobranchs

Ensuring the efficacy of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) requires that adequate management strategies be implemented according to the MPA’s objectives. Within the scope of species conservation, achieving MPA objectives demands understanding of the role played by MPAs for the target species. In 2014, Brazilian stakeholders and experts set the action plan for elasmobranchs’ conservation, which intended to create new protected areas and expand the existing ones. Nevertheless, more than 65% of Brazilian elasmobranch species are threatened by anthropogenic pressures such as fisheries and habitat loss. In addition, their ecological aspects are not well studied, which might jeopardize the success of the proposed actions. To assess the functionality and effectiveness of two no-take MPAs for sixteen demersal species, the Wildlife Refuge of Alcatrazes (WRA) and the Tupinambás Ecological Station (TES), we evaluated the community structure, space-time variations in functional diversity and changes in fishery indicators. Community dynamics were driven by inshore intrusion and time persistent effects of a cold and nutrient-rich water mass, the South Atlantic Central Water, which increased the relative abundance of species, functional groups, and overall diversity. Spatially, the heterogeneity of benthic habitats, due to the action of stronger waves in specific parts of the MPAs, reflects a diverse community of benthic invertebrates, explaining differences in relative abundance and similarities in space use by the functional groups. Regarding effectiveness, the MPAs make up a key network with the surrounding protection areas to support the ecosystem maintenance on the central and northern coast of the São Paulo state. The establishment of the TES has positively influenced the community throughout the years while the recent creation of the WRA may have promoted some improvements in fisheries indicators for a threatened guitarfish. We propose different functions of the Alcatrazes archipelago for each species and suggest some measures to enhance not only elasmobranch conservation but also the MPAs’ effectiveness.
