Exotic species of zooplankton in the Upper Paraná River floodplain, Daphnia lumholtzi Sars, 1885 (Crustacea: Branchiopoda)

Abstract: competition and habitat alteration (Mack et al., 2000). Thus, there is a growing need to understand the invasion process and to predict the success and effects of invading species (Moyle and Light, 1996) in order to AbstractThe integrity of aquatic ecosystems is being challenged worldwide by invading species, which has been one of the frequent causes of biodiversity loss. The invader may cause extinctions of vulnerable native species through predation, grazing, competition and habitat alteration. Keywords: Da… Show more

“…Biological Sciences Maringá, v. 38, n. 1, p. 29-36, Jan.-Mar., 2016 (Moyle & Light, 1996;Agostinho et al, 2005;Clavero & García-Berthou, 2005). Some cases of biological invasions in the zooplankton community have been reported, involving different continents, countries and types of environments (Lopes, Lansac-Tôha, Vale, & Serafim 1997;José de Paggi, 2002;Serafim, Bonecker, Rossa, Lansac-Tôha, & Costa, 2003;Simões et al, 2009;Zhdanova, & Dobrynin, 2011). Among the rotifers, we find the wide occurrence of K. bostoniensis and K. longispina, both from North America (Edmondson, 1959).…”

“…Biological invasions have become a common subject due to the growing number of reports of occurrence of these species (Boltovskoy & Correa, 2015;Simões et al, 2009) besides the ecosystem imbalance caused by their establishment in several environments (Agostinho Thomaz, & Gomes 2005;Clavero;García-Berthou, 2005;Thomaz, Mormul, & Michelan, 2015;Vitousek, 1990).…”

“…The invading microcruastaceans, Daphnia lumholtzi also colonised the Upper Paraná River floodplain lakes of South America soon after their introduction. Favourable temperature, water transparency and decreased nutrient concentrations supported the expansion of D. lumholtzi in South American wetland system (Simões et al, 2009). The actual effects of alien species on microcrustacean assemblages are not known, but micro-crustacean assemblages are useful for understanding the impacts and timing of invasion on endemic ecosystems.…”

“…More than 50% of the biota of the Hudson River in the USA comprises introduced species mostly from Europe where 10% of those populations have significant ecological impacts on native populations (Nilsson & Berggren, 2000). Human activities are blamed to facilitate the establishment of non-native species by disturbing natural landscapes and by increasing propagule pressures on native populations (Leprieur et al, 2008;Simões et al, 2009). …”
