“…In the study by Nakagaki and Negreiros-Fransozo (1998) was also observed variations in the abundance of this species due to greater penetration of SACW in regions closer to the coast. Similar results were observed by Fransozo et al (2002) and Costa et al (2007) for X. kroyeri, everyone conducted in Ubatuba, northern coast of São Paulo state.…”

“…Ecological studies concerning crustaceans were conducted in southeastern Brazil (Fransozo et al, 2002;Castro et al, 2005;Costa et al, 2007Costa et al, , 2011Almeida et al 2012b;Heckler et al, 2013;Silva, 2013), principally on the coast of São Paulo. However, they are scarce on the coast of Rio de Janeiro, especially on the study region, Santana Archipelago, in Macaé (RJ).…”

This study evaluated the abundance and spatial-temporal distribution of the shrimp Xiphopenaeus kroyeri in the coastal region of Macaé, state of Rio de Janeiro, southeastern Brazil. Monthly samples were obtained from March 2008 to February 2010 in six stations located in Inner (5, 10 and 15m depth) and Outer (25, 35 and 45m depth) areas. It was used a commercial fishery boat equipped with an otter-trawl net (3.5 m mouth width, mesh size 20mm and 15mm in the cod end). Water samples were taken for determination of temperature and salinity, and sediment samples for determination of texture and organic matter content. A total of 7146 shrimps were sampled. About 95% of all shrimps were caught in the shallow area, i.e., depths <20m. Greatest abundances were recorded in winter and spring. No significant correlation was observed between sediment (phi) and abundance. The distribution of X. kroyeri in the studied area was closely related to seasonal cold waterfront of the South Atlantic Central Water (SACW) and temperature was the main factor affecting the species abundance.Keywords: abundance, abiotic factors, Penaeidae, SACW. Abundância e distribuição espaço-temporal do camarãoXiphopenaeus kroyeri (Decapoda: Penaeidae): uma espécie em explotação no sudeste do Brasil ResumoEste estudo avaliou a abundância e a distribuição espaço-temporal do camarão Xiphopenaeus kroyeri na área costeira da região de Macaé, estado do Rio de Janeiro no sudeste do Brasil. As coletas foram realizadas mensalmente de março de 2008 a fevereiro de 2010 em seis transectos localizados na área interna (5, 10 e 15m profundidade) e na área externa (25,35 e 45m profundidade). Foi utilizado um barco de pesca comercial equipado com uma rede de arrasto tipo otter-trawl (3,5m abertura de boca, 20mm de malha e 15mm de ensacador). Foram obtidas amostras de água para determinação da temperatura e da salinidade e amostras de sedimento para determinação da granulometria e teor de matéria orgânica. Um total estimado de 7146 camarões foi amostrado. Aproximadamente, 95% de todos os camarões foram capturados "Inner Area", ou seja, profundidades <20m. As maiores abundâncias foram registradas no inverno e na primavera. Não houve correlação significativa entre o sedimento (phi) e abundância. De acordo com os resultados deste estudo, a distribuição do X. kroyeri na área de estudo está intimamente ligada à sazonalidade da frente térmica da ACAS e a temperatura é o principal fator que afetou a abundância da espécie.Palavras-chave: abundância, fatores abióticos, Penaeidae, ACAS.

“…Also, several shrimp species are known to use and actively select heterogeneous microhabitats (e.g. algae) as shelter against predators (Fransozo et al, 2002). Overall, the presence of land derived material at Ubatuba Bay represents an opportunity to explore sea-land connections and the relevance of land derived material in controlling the distribution and abundance of marine invertebrates in relatively deep coastal areas.…”

“…Most of the studies on this coast have focused on species of economic importance (Xiphopenaeus kroyeri (Heller, 1862)-Nakagaki & Negreiros -Fransozo, 1998;Fransozo et al, 2002;Costa et al, 2007: Artemesia longinaris Bate, 1888Costa et al, 2005a: Pleoticus muelleri (Bate, 1888)- Costa et al, 2004: Arenaeus cribrarius (Lamarck, 1818)- Pinheiro et al, 1994: Callinectes danae Smith, 1869-Chacur & Negreiros-Fransozo, 2001). These studies suggest that the combined effect of temperature, sediment composition, and organic matter availability is most relevant in determining the distribution of crustaceans inhabiting soft bottom environments (Buchanan & Stoner, 1988;Costa et al, 2005a, b;Fransozo et al, 2005;Henderson et al, 2006;Castilho et al, 2008a, b).…”

Spatial and temporal distribution of the shrimp Nematopalaemon schmitti (Decapoda: Caridea: Palaemonidae) at a subtropical enclosed bay in South America

et al. 2009

The spatio-temporal distribution of the soft bottom dwelling shrimp Nematopalaemon schmitti and the effect of environmental conditions (sediment characteristics, temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen) on its abundance were studied at Ubatuba Bay, south-eastern coast of Brazil. Surveys were conducted monthly from September 1995 to August 1996. Each sampling set comprised eight different transects distributed within the bay. Comparisons of CPUE of shrimp among sampling stations demonstrated that the abundance of N. schmitti was the greatest during winter, when average water temperature within the bay was considerably lower than during the rest of the year. Most shrimps (more than 95%) were collected at a single transect located at the northernmost side of the bay, demonstrating the extremely patchy distribution of this species. A multiple regression analysis using data only from this northernmost transect indicated that temperature was the most relevant factor affecting the abundance of N. schmitti during the year.

“…Previous studies on X. kroyeri populations of the northern coast of the state of São Paulo concluded that high temperature, salinity and very fine sand influenced the distribution of this species (Fransozo et al 2002, Costa et al 2007, Castilho et al 2008b. A relevant complementation for these findings would be a more detailed analysis of these populations involving demographic categories, since marine shrimps establish in areas with different environmental characteristics, according to their life stage (Dall et al 1990).…”

We investigated the influence of environmental factors in spatial and temporal distribution of the seabob shrimp Xiphopenaeus kroyeri in Santos Bay and São Vicente Estuary, state of São Paulo, Brazil. Monthly samples were obtained, from May 2008 through April 2010, from four locations in the estuary and four in the bay. No individual was collected in the estuary and this was attributed to the low salinity means recorded in this environment. We collected 109,153 individuals in the bay and there was no difference in abundance between the two years comprised by the study period. The similarity in spatial distribution can be related to sediment grain size that in all sampling locations showed great amount of very fine sand. The largest amount of reproductive females was obtained in early 2010, when temperature was high, and this could have increased the juvenile recruitment in April 2010. According to our results, the distribution of X. kroyeri in the study area is influenced by temperature, which is related to reproduction, and salinity, limiting the entrance of individuals in the estuarine region.
