Abstract:Impacts caused to freshwater reservoirs by human activities have increased in tropical and subtropical regions in the last decades. We studied the effects of land use on the physicochemical properties of water and their effects on larval Odonata diversity in a subtropical lagoon. During 1 year, physicochemical variables were measured, and Odonata larvae were collected in 8 sites (4 in the urbane zone and 4 in the more conserved rural zone) with different land uses that cover the entire periphery of the lagoon.… Show more
