“…No Brasil, a maior parte dos trabalhos que contribuem para o conhecimento da fauna e da ecologia de simulídeos concentra-se, principalmente, no Sudeste, com destaque para o estado de São Paulo (Araújo-Coutinho et al 1988, Pepinelli et al 2003, Pepinelli et al 2005, Pepinelli et al 2006, no Sul, principalmente no Rio Grande do Sul (Strieder 2002, 2004, e na Região Amazônica (Hamada & McCreadie 1999, Hamada & Grillet 2001, Hamada et al 2002. No Paraná, os estudos voltados à fauna de simulídeos restringem-se praticamente à região metropolitana de Curitiba e à planície litorânea (Lozovei et al 1989, 2004, Dellome Filho 1991, Cunha et al 1998, com registros parcos ou inexistentes nas demais regiões do estado.…”

-In this work, the survey of simuliid species and the study of their spatial distribution in four streams of a small watershed situated in Londrina, Paraná State, were carried out from January to October 2007. Changes in the species composition of the breeding sites were also checked along the sampling months. Seventeen black fl y species were found, being Simulium botulibranchium Lutz, Simulium travassosi d'Andretta & d'Andretta, Simulium anamariae Vulcano, Simulium brachycladum Lutz & Pinto and Simulium metallicum s.l. Bellardi new records for Paraná State. The Canonical Correspondence Analysis showed that the environmental variables most correlated to the species distribution among sample sites were water conductivity and those linked to physical dimensions of the breeding sites, like width, depth and water velocity. The matrix of faunistic similarity among collecting dates was negatively correlated to the time interval of sampling matrix for three of the water bodies studied, showing the existence of temporal changes in the species composition. According to Multiple Regression Analysis, temporal abundance variation of Simulium perfl avum Roubaud, Simulium inaequale Paterson & Shannon and Simulium lutzianum s.l. Pinto was not linked to air temperature, photoperiod and rainfall, suggesting the infl uence of other factors, probably those directly associated to specifi c breeding site conditions. The results indicate that differences in physical and chemical characteristics among water bodies may affect the taxonomic composition of simuliids in this watershed.

“…Since black fly larvae dislodge easily from the body of the nymphs when fixed and transported, we present a photographic record (Figures 1 and 2) of Lachlania nymphs that were carrying pupae of Simulium exiguum Roubaud and two Chironomidae larvae. The larva and pupa of Simulium exiguum and Simulium cuasiexiguum Shelley, Luna Dias, Maia Herzog & Lowry usually live on submerged deciduous leaves and roots, and on leaves of the streamside vegetation (Pepinelli et al 2006).…”

Abstract:We report cases of Simuliidae and Chironomidae living on Lachlania nymphs (Ephemeroptera). This is the first record of these associations in South America. Simulium exiguum (pupae and larvae), Simulium cuasiexiguum (larvae), Cricotopus sp. (larva) and Rheotanytarsus sp. (larva) were found associated with Lachlania nymphs. We believe that all of these associations can be classified as opportunistic (or casual
