“…Afterwards, Guzmán-Soto and Tamaris-Turizo (2014) in a more general article on the feeding habits of nymphs of Ephemeroptera and Plecoptera, and of larvae of Trichoptera also from Río Gaira, found that in the studied individuals of Anacroneuria, animal matter was the main component of the diet, followed by coarse particulate organic matter (CPOM), fine particulate organic matter (FPOM) and, to a lesser concern, other minor items. Sierra-Labastidas et al (2017) reported similar results for this genus in the same river.…”

The knowledge of the diet of aquatic insects is important to assess the use of resources and overlap of trophic niche between species, as well as to understand their role in the food web of the freshwater ecosystems they inhabit. This is particularly necessary in tropical areas where information on this topic is scarce. The aim of the present work is to describe the feeding habits of the species Anacroneuria marta Zúñiga and Stark, 2002 and Anacroneuria caraca Stark, 1995 in the middle section of the Gaira River (Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia). We performed three samplings during the rainy and dry seasons in the two main different microhabitats of the reach (leaf packs and gravel) in 2014. The diet of a total of 87 and 90 individuals of A. caraca and A. marta, respectively, was studied. With this information, niche breadth for each species and niche overlap between them in terms of trophic resources were calculated. The main trophic resource for both species in the dry and rainy season was the animal matter. In the dry season, FPOM was also important in the diet of A. caraca, and A. marta ingested a great quantity of CPOM in the rainy season. Larvae of Trichoptera, were the most ingested prey in both species, followed by Chironomidae, Coleoptera Hydrophilidae, and Ephemeroptera. No differences in diet between both species were detected, so this could favor the niche overlap in terms of trophic resources and could lead to competition between them. The possible ecological scenarios are discussed.

“…According to DNA barcoding identification, all specimens belonged to the genus Anacroneuria , from the Perlidae family, the only one reported in Nicaragua (Maes, 1998 ). Despite the use of the Plecoptera order in biological indices, there are not many studies on the ecology and taxonomy of the Perlidae family in Latin America, thus, few species are reported in the region (Alonso‐EguíaLis et al, 2014 ; Sierra‐Labastidas et al, 2018 ). Efforts are being made worldwide to develop barcode libraries of insects from the Ephemeroptera, Trichoptera, and Plecoptera orders (Cordero et al, 2017 ; Gill et al, 2014 ; Zhou et al, 2010 , 2016 ).…”

Aquatic macroinvertebrates are widely used as indicators for water quality assessment around the world. Modern strategies for environmental assessment implement molecular analysis to delimitate species of aquatic macroinvertebrates. Delimitation methods have been established to determine boundaries between species units using sequencing data from DNA barcodes and serve as first exploratory tools for taxonomic revisions. This is useful in regions such as the neotropics where aquatic macroinvertebrate habitats are threatened by human interference and DNA databases remain understudied. We asked whether the biodiversity of aquatic macroinvertebrates in a stream in Nicaragua, within the Central American Dry Corridor, could be characterized with biological indices and DNA barcoding. In this study, we combined regional biological indices (BMWP‐CR, IBF‐SV‐2010) along with distance‐based (ASAP, BIN) and tree‐based (GMYC, bPTP) delimitation methods, as well as nucleotide BLAST in public barcode databases. We collected samples from the upper, middle, and low reaches of the Petaquilla river. The three sites presented excellent water quality with the BMWP‐CR index, but evidence of high organic pollution was found in the middle reach with the IBF‐SV‐2010 index. We report a total of 219 COI sequences successfully generated from 18 families and 8 orders. Operational taxonomic units (OTUs) designation ranged from 69 to 73 using the four methods, with a congruency of 92% for barcode assignation. Nucleotide BLAST identified 14 species (27.4% of barcodes) and 33 genera (39.3% of barcodes) from query sequences in GenBank and BOLD system databases. This small number of identified OTUs may be explained by the paucity of molecular data from the Neotropical region. Our study provides valuable information about the characterization of macroinvertebrate families that are important biological indicators for the assessment of water quality in Nicaragua. The application of molecular approaches will allow the study of local diversity and further improve the application of molecular techniques for biomonitoring.

“…Por otra parte, Asp2 mostró relaciones negativas con la variable de temperatura (-0,3840) y RCF (-0,4789) y relaciones positivas con el pH (0,4862), la dureza (0,4709), la alcalinidad (0,3394), la conductividad eléctrica (0,3851), el oxígeno disuelto (0,3164) y los sólidos totales (0,3389). Los análisis permitieron deducir que Asp1 requiere de afluentes donde el caudal y el área sean de una condición ecológica relativamente estable y de baja carga orgánica, ya sea la producida por el arrastre de sedimentos o la escorrentía generada por las lluvias y los suelos erosionados o intervenidos por la actividad agrícola (Roldán & Ramírez, 2008;Sierra-Labastidas, et al, 2017). Por su parte, Asp2 presentó un mayor rango de respuesta ecológica que Asp1 en las microcuencas evaluadas y en un tramo altitudinal (2.500 a 1.400 m s.n.m.…”

Esta situación afecta de manera particular al orden Plecoptera, considerado altamente sensible a la contaminación acuática (Tomanova & Tedesco, 2007;Castillo-Sánchez, et al, 2018;Sierra-Labastidas, et al, 2017).…”

El orden Plecoptera representa uno de los grupos de insectos más relevantes en bioindicación en Colombia. En los últimos años su conocimiento ha aumentado ampliamente; no obstante, en algunas zonas de la región andina, los estudios taxonómicos y ecológicos son aún incipientes. Dada la importancia de los plecópteros en quebradas de alta montaña, se evaluó la relación entre la presencia y abundancia de ninfas del género Anacroneuria con variables fisicoquímicas y bacteriológicas en tres microcuencas andinas asociadas con el río Combeima (Tolima, Colombia): Las Perlas, La Plata y Cay. Se realizaron seis colectas diurnas con red Surber en diferentes sustratos (arena, grava-guijarro, roca y hojarasca), durante un ciclo hidrológico (2016-2017; épocas de altas lluvias, bajas lluvias y transiciones). Se registraron 750 organismos, de los cuales, por morfometría tradicional se determinaron dos morfoespecies de Anacroneuria (Asp1 y Asp2). Se encontró correlación negativa entre la abundancia de Asp1 con el fósforo (rs= -0,5266) en la quebrada Las Perlas; conductividad eléctrica (rs= -0,4725) en la quebrada La Plata y nitratos (rs= -0,4821) en la quebrada Cay, mientras que la Asp2 la presentó en DQO (rs= -0,5634) y correlación positiva con temperatura (rs= 0,6750), pH (rs= 0,7079, nitratos (rs= 0,5569) y fosfatos (rs= 0,6511) en la quebrada Las Perlas.
