“…In general, the composition of invertebrates found in this study was similar to those found in other studies investigating the fauna of bromeliads in different regions of Brazil (Lopez 1998, Araújo et al 2007, Marques et al 2008, Sodré 2010. This result corroborates Mestre et al (2000), who indicated the possible existence of a characteristic bromeliad fauna associated with these plants, permanent and transitory, but with a predominance of some groups adapted to changes in the chemical composition and input of nutrients to the bromeliads (Schuttz et al 2012).…”

“…Oliveira et al (1994), for example, indicated that bromeliads in coastal marshland are used by meso and microscopic fauna due to the moisture and protection against heat of the biome, besides the shelter from predators. In turn, Marques et al (2008), comparing the fauna of Culicidae (Diptera) from terrestrial bromeliads, found similar richness and species diversity among urban, semi-urban and forest environments.…”

Forest fragments in the state of Minas Gerais contain a large number of Bromeliaceae genera, whose cisterns accumulate water and organic matter, providing shelter and food for a wide range of organisms. However, these fragments often consist only of small patches of vegetation, making the species more vulnerable to the effects of this landscape changes. This study aimed to test the effect of the distance to the edge and of the matrix type on the structure of aquatic invertebrate communities in four morphospecies of bromeliads. Samples were collected in Atlantic Forest fragments adjacent to pasture and planted forest areas, in a region of Serra da Mantiqueira, Brazil. Of the 147 bromeliads investigated, we found 35 taxa, among which the most abundant groups were Ostracoda (4,962 individuals), Culicidae (2,358), Tanypodinae (1,164) and Scirtidae (1,043). The richness of taxa and Shannon diversity of invertebrates were similar at different distances from the edge, with variation of richness between 17 and 23 taxa and diversity between 1.25 and 1.52. The composition of the fauna in the cisterns changed between some collection sections (A vs. C, C vs. D and D vs. F), irrespective of being close to or far from the edge. There was no variation of richness (t=-1.145, df=106, p= 0.341) and diversity (t= 1.376, df= 106, p= 0.429) among samples collected from fragments next to planted forest and pasture, likely because the bromeliads studied were located on hillsides above the canopy of planted forests, and subject to similar conditions to those found in the fragments next to pastures. The results demonstrate the importance of bromeliads in maintaining the richness and diversity of the invertebrates they harbor, even in altered landscapes exposed to extreme conditions such as fragment edges.

“…São fontes de recursos alimentares, como frutos, néctar, pólen e água, além de servirem de abrigo e local de reprodução de algumas espécies de animais (NADKARNI, 1988;SCHINEIDER;TEIXEIRA, 2001;MESTRE et al, 2001), possibilitando, assim, a ocorrência de uma diversidade faunística maior no ambiente que habitam (WAECHTER, 1992;FORATTINI, 2008). As epífitas também possuem grande influência na ciclagem de água e nutrientes nas florestas (INGRAM;NADKARNI, 1993;OLIVEIRA, 2004).…”

RESUMO -Neste estudo, o objetivo foi avaliar as diferenças entre a riqueza e a diversidade epifítica sobre os forófitos de licuri, Syagrus coronata (Mart.) Beec., e outras espécies da Caatinga, bem como verificar a maior frequência das epífitas sobre os estratos de S. coronata. O estudo foi realizado no Parque Nacional do Vale do Catimbau, em Pernambuco. Foram selecionados, aleatoriamente, 50 indivíduos adultos de S. coronata (L), assim como o indivíduo arbóreo adulto mais próximo de cada S. coronata (O), excluindo-se os indivíduos de licuri, para contabilizar o número de indivíduos epifíticos por espécie e classificá-los quanto à forma de vida em hemepífitas primárias, hemepífitas secundárias, holoepífitas obrigatórias, holoepífitas facultativas e holoepífitas acidentais. Foram amostrados 760 indivíduos epifíticos distribuídos em 16 espécies, dos quais 15 táxons sobre S. coronata, principalmente encontrados na região da estipe recoberta pelos restos das bainhas das folhas antigas, e cinco no outro grupo forofítico. A diversidade de Shannon-Weaver (L -1,936; O -0,155) foi significativamente maior sobre S. coronata quando comparada com aquela observada sobre as outras espécies forofíticas. A análise de dissimilaridade florística das espécies epífitas em razão dos dois tipos de forófitos (L e O) apontou a formação de agrupamentos mais consistentes entre os indivíduos de S. coronata em relação às demais espécies. Além disso, considerando os tamanhos do diâmetro à altura do solo (DAS) e a altura, evidenciou-se que, quanto maiores esses parâmetros, maiores também a riqueza e abundância de indivíduos epifíticos. Assim, este estudo corrobora a importância desta espécie como hospedeira da riqueza e diversidade epifítica na Caatinga e para a conservação das populações de S. coronata.Palavras-chave: Epifitismo; PARNA do Catimbau; Arecaceae. THE IMPORTANCE OF THE PALM Syagrus coronata (Mart.) Beec. FOR THE CONSERVATION OF SPECIES RICHNESS AND DIVERSITY OF VASCULAR EPIPHYTES IN THE CAATINGAABSTRACT -The aim of this study was to evaluate the differences between the epiphytic diversity and richness on the phorophytes of licuri, Syagrus coronata (Mart.) Beec., and other species of the Caatinga and check the higher frequency of epiphytes on the strata of S. coronata. The study was conducted at the National Park of Catimbau Valley (Parque Nacional do Vale do Catimbau), in Pernambuco. We randomly selected 50 adults of S. coronata (L) as well as the individual adult tree closest to each S. coronata (O), excluding individuals of licuri to count the number of epiphytic individuals per species and classify them according to their life form in primary hemiepiphytes, secondary hemiepiphytes, mandatory holoepiphytes, optional holoepiphytes and accidental holoepiphytes. We sampled 760 individuals distributed in 16 species, 15 of which taxa of S. coronata, mainly found in the stem region covered by the remains of old leaf sheaths, and five in another phorophyte group. The Shannon-Weaver (L -1.936; O -0.155) diversity was significantly hig...

“…In urban areas, Wy. melanocephala was also recorded colonizing Zingiberaceae axils, which have a similar Wyeomyia specimens are often found in bromeliads, bamboo internods and tree holes located in forest fragments in Brazil (Marques & Forattini 2008, Torreias et al 2010, Ceretti-Junior et al 2014. It is known that adult females are eclectic in the search for hosts.…”

The community of Diptera (Insecta) colonizing axils of Alocasia macrorrhizos (L.) G.Don (Araceae), with records of Aedes aegypti (L.) and Aedes albopictus (Skuse) in urban areas of Manaus, Amazonas

Alocasia macrorrhizos (L.) G.Don grows and proliferates in shaded areas in several forest fragments in urban zones. The adult plant has axils that accumulate rain water (phytotelmata) and serve as breeding sites for several families of aquatic insects. The objective of this study was to determine the composition of the entomofauna associated with water accumulations in axils of A. macrorrhizos in urban areas of Manaus, Brazil. Individuals of A. macrorrhizos were sampled in five forest fragments, between April/2005 and March/2007 in urban areas of Manaus, totaling 184 sampling units. A manual suction hose was used for the removal of entomofauna. A total of 1,941 immatures of Diptera were collected representing the following families: Culicidae (96.5%), Chironomidae (2%), Psychodidae (0.7%), Ephydridae (0.7%) and Corethrellidae (0.1%). Five Culicidae species were identified: Wyeomyia melanocephala Dyar & Knab, 1906 (91.7%), Wy. ypsipola Dyar, 1922 (4.3%), Aedes albopictus (Skuse, 1894) (2.3%), Ae. aegypti (Linnaeus, 1762) (1.5%) and Johnbelkinia longipes (Fabricius, 1805) (0.1%). The members of Culicidae were the most abundant, confirming the importance of this group in communities associated with phytotelmata, with a positive relation to the volume of water (p < 0.05). The occurrence of Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus in axils of A. macrorrhizos demonstrates the potential of this Araceae as a breeding site of these medically important species. However, the real contribution of this Araceae in the maintenance and dispersion of populations of these two species of mosquitoes throughout the year should be further studied.
