Entomofauna do Oeste do Estado de Santa Catarina, Sul do Brasil

Abstract

Resumo.No presente trabalho é apresentada uma lista de 1328 espécies de insetos observadas no oeste do Estado de Santa Catarina nas últimas oito décadas, sendo que esta riqueza de espécies equivale a 1,47% do total de espécies registradas no Brasil. Foram compilados, em diversas coleções, os registros de exemplares coletados por F. Plaumann, foi consultada a literatura, e, além disso, foram feitas observações pessoais. Das 17 ordens registradas, Hymenoptera foi a que apresentou a maior riqueza de espécies, com 382, sendo que, a família Formicidae representou 48,42% das espécies desta ordem e Apidae 19%. Em Coleoptera foram registradas 230 espécies, com Curculionidae representando 22,60% desse total e Coccinelidae 19,13%. Na ordem Lepidoptera foram 199 espécies, a família Nymphalidae representou 37,18% dessa riqueza e Saturniidae 22,11%. total registrado para o Brasil, mas, trata-se de uma etapa importante para ampliar os conhecimentos sobre a distribuição geográfica destas espécies.Palavras-chave: Distribuição geográfica; Insecta; Lista de espécies; Riqueza. Entomofauna from West of Santa Catarina State, South of BrazilAbstract. In this study is presented a list of 1328 insect species observed in west of Santa Catarina State, Brazil, in the last eight decades. The species richness founds corresponds 1.47 % of the total of species registered in Brazil. The data set was compiled from collection records performed by F. Plaumann, in addition to the records from literature and personal observations. Here, we recorded a total of 17 orders of insects. The order Hymenoptera had greatest richness with 382 species. Within Hymenoptera, the family Formicidae represented 48.42% and Apidae, 19%. In order Coleoptera, we found 230 species, with Curculionidae representing 22.60% of this total and Coccinelidae 19.13%. On the order Lepidoptera we recorded 199 species, the Nymphalidae family represented 37.18% of this richness and Saturniidae, 22.11%. The species richness presented here is minimal when compared to the total recorded for Brazil, but it is an important step to improve the knowledge about the geographic distribution of these insects.

Temporal Variation of Membracidae (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha) Composition in Areas of Caatinga with Different Vegetation Structures

“…However, in studies surveying entomofauna they are always present (Yamamoto & Gravena, 2000;Hickel et al, 2001;Favretto et al, 2013). Colonial species are less active and easy to collect, their life cycles are closely related to the host plant, and they have a stable classification.…”

First records of the occurrence of twelve species of Sabethini (Diptera, Culicidae) in the state of Paraná, southern Brazil

“…The distribution of mosquito species is presented based on the main natural characteristics of Paraná, according to the Maack (1981) and Wons (1985). The review of articles published after the lists mentioned above include: for Rio Grande do Sul: Gomes et al (2010); for Paraná: Anjos and Navarro-Silva (2008), Bona and Navarro-Silva (2008), Tissot and Navarro-Silva (2008), Marchi et al (2010), Müller et al (2012), Guedes and Navarro-Silva (2014) and Lopes et al (2014); and for Santa Catarina: Gomes et al (2009), Reis et al (2010), Favretto et al (2013), Müller et al (2014), Santos et al (2014) and Ferreira- de-Freitas et al (2016).…”

Functional trophic groups and spatial variation of aquatic insects in a hydrographic basin of Southern Brazil

“…In the western region of the Santa Catarina state, southern Brazil, for instance, there are many studies related to insects (SILVA, 1999;SILVA & SILVESTRE, 2000;SILVA & SILVESTRE, 2004;LUTINSKI & GARCIA, 2005;GRACIANI et al, 2005;MARCONDES et al, 2006;RAVANELLO, 2007;LUTINSKI et al, 2008;IOP et al, 2009;BATTISTONI, 2012;FAVRETTO, 2012;SCHMIDT et al, 2012;SANTOS et al, 2013;FAVRETTO et al, 2013a;FAVRETTO et al, 2013b;RAIMUNDI et al, 2013;FAVRETTO et al, 2014;SANTOS et al, 2014;FAVRETTO et al, 2015;ORLANDIN et al 2017). However, only Ravanello's research (2007) covers the entire extension of hydrographic basins as sampling parcels, as the other papers have focus on forest remnants, small areas or dispersal species record.…”
