“…Seasonality is also indicated as a determinant factor in coleofauna sampling by affecting and determining the abundance and dominance of families of the beetles sampled (FERNANDES et al, 2011). Teixeira et al (2009) verified that the number of individuals sampled was higher during the month of higher precipitation and higher temperature. Rodrigues et al (2010) also observed that the occurrence of the species Ataenius sp1.…”

“…The use of the Coleoptera order in environmental quality assessment studies is attributed to the wide variety of niches it occupies, number of families, species diversity and feeding habits (TEIXEIRA et al, 2009), which may be phytophagous, parasitic, predatory, scavenging or coprophagous. For example, the coprophagous beetles of the Scarabaiedae family act in the fragmentation of organic matter, recycling excrements of other animals and acting in the biological control of other populations.…”

“…O emprego da ordem coleoptera em estudos de avaliação da qualidade ambiental ocorre em detrimento da grande variedade de nichos que ocupa, número de famílias, diversidade de espécies e de hábitos alimentares (TEIXEIRA et al, 2009), os quais podem ser fitófagos, parasitas, predadores, necrófagos e coprófagos. Os besouros coprófagos da família Scarabaiedae, por exemplo, por atuarem na fragmentação da matéria orgânica, reciclando excrementos de outros animais e agirem no controle biológico de outras populações, são considerados um grupo de importância ecológica, ao passo que a presença ou ausência desse grupo pode auxiliar em estudos de intervenção antrópica no ambiente (RODRIGUES et al, 2010).…”

The phylum Arthropoda is one of the most diverse groups under the terrestrial surface comprising different classes of insects that occupy different environments. Some groups have a close relationship with the habitat they occupy, responding significantly to changes in the environment, thus indicating the level of change in the environment by their presence or absence. The present study aimed to demonstrate the importance of edaphic fauna as a bioindicator of environmental quality. This is a bibliographic review based on specialized consultation of scientific articles in the databases Google Scholar, SciELO-Scientific Electronic Library and ResearchGate. The studies found that environmental quality can be measured from the diversity and abundance of arthropods that live and perform their functions in the soil. Macrofauna influences important soil chemical and physical processes such as nutrient cycling, structuring and homogenization, and increased productivity, among others. The mesofauna, besides acting on soil properties, acts on the regulation of microbial populations, is sensitive to changes and responds promptly. The groups Acari, Collembola, Coleoptera, Hymenoptera and Araneae are indicated in several studies as potential bioindicators because they are commonly sampled in different environments. The factors identified as conditioning factors of the presence of these groups are environmental heterogeneity, type of vegetation cover and availability of litter, applied management system, seasonality, soil characteristics, and anthropic activities, among others. In short, because they respond quickly, the changes are considered to be efficient biological indicators; therefore, knowing the diversity of species and their degree of interaction with the environment allows us to analyze the effects of anthropic modifications in ecosystems.Resumo: O filo Arthropoda é um dos grupos mais diversos da superfície terrestre, compreendendo diferentes classes de insetos que ocupam diversos ambientes. Alguns grupos, entretanto, apresentam relação estreita com o habitat que ocupam, respondendo de forma significativa às modificações no ambiente, o que acaba indicando o nível de alteração desse mesmo ambiente através de sua presença ou ausência. O presente estudo objetivou demonstrar a importância da fauna edáfica como bioindicadora de qualidade ambiental. Trata-se de uma revisão bibliográfica baseada em consulta especializada de artigos científicos nos bancos de dados Google Acadêmico, SciELO-Scientific Eletronic Library e ResearchGate. Os trabalhos encontrados apontaram que a qualidade ambiental pode ser mensurada a partir da diversidade e abundância de artrópodes que vivem e desempenham suas funções no solo. A macrofauna influencia importantes processos químicos e físicos do solo como a ciclagem de nutrientes, estruturação e homogeneização, aumento da produtividade, dentre outros. Já a mesofauna, além de atuar sobre as propriedades edáficas, atua na regulação de populações microbianas e é sensível às alterações, respondendo pr...

“…Os grupos Coleoptera e Orthoptera apresentaram os maiores valores de relação com temperatura e umidade relativa. Segundo Teixeira et al (2009), em levantamentos de coleópteros de solo, geralmente observa-se que estes são mais abundantes no período de maiores temperaturas. Para Sydow et al (2007), este fato pode estar relacionado à oferta de recursos ser má-xima nos meses quentes e mínima nos meses frios, assim a distribuição da fauna se adapta a estas variações, aumentando sua população com a elevação da temperatura.…”

RESUMOSolos florestais propiciam boas condições para o desenvolvimento e estabelecimento da fauna edáfica, devido principalmente à deposição de serrapilheira. No entanto, sistemas conduzidos em monoculturas por fornecerem um único substrato alimentar, podem propiciar o desenvolvimento de determinados grupos faunísticos em detrimento de outros, ocasionando surtos de espécies-praga. O objetivo deste trabalho foi caracterizar a fauna edáfica e sua relação com as variáveis meteorológicas, em plantios de Eucalyptus spp. ABSTRACTForest soils provide good conditions for the development and the establishment of soil fauna, manly by the deposition of litter. However, monoculture systems conducted in a single food providing substrate, can promote the development of certain fauna groups over others, causing outbreaks of pest species. The aim of this study was to characterize the soil fauna and its relationship with meteorological variables, in plantations of Eucalyptus spp. This study was conducted in six stands of three species of Eucalyptus: Eucalyptus dunni Maiden, Eucalyptus grandis Maiden and Eucalyptus grandis x Eucalyptus urophylla S. T. Blake (clone hybrid) and two ages (planted in 2006 and 2007). The stands was located at Cabanha da

BackgroundSoil quality (SQ) assessment is affected by methods that convert data sets into indices, and such analyses are expensive and time‐consuming. Qualitative SQ assessments are faster and cheaper than quantitative methods, and they can be repeated to monitor SQ in crop and pasture systems. We evaluated SQ using qualitative and quantitative SQ indicators of two grazing systems under Voisin Rational Grazing (VRG) with trees (WT) or without trees (NT). We took an adjacent native forest as a reference, and we used principal component analysis (PCA) to compare the accuracy of the assessment methods.ResultsAccording to the set of indicators used for quantitative assessment, the WT system and the Forest had higher SQ than other systems, due to higher values of soil physical and chemical indicators. That reflected better performance of soil in functions related to structural support, nutrient cycling, and biological productivity. According to the set of indicators used for qualitative assessment, the WT system showed better SQ than the areas NT, due to the higher scores of all indicators and better performance of the soil functions, and those values were close to the Forest in the indicators. PCA applied to integrate the data of qualitative and quantitative indicators indicated that SQ in WT was similar to the Forest.ConclusionsThe qualitative evaluation was as efficient as the quantitative evaluation for SQ assessment in VRG areas with and without trees. Its use can promote farmers’ autonomy and the development of skills to identify environmental factors that help to evaluate their practices.This article is protected by copyright.
