“…In Brazil, adults live and reproduce in coastal areas and early life stages develop in estuaries and coastal lagoons (Castello, 1986;Haimovici, 1997;Sinque & Muelbert, 1997;Lana et al, 2000;Seeliger, 2000;Tundisi & Matsumura-Tundisi, 2000). In Uruguay, M. furnieri spawns in the Río de la Plata Estuary (Acuña et al, 1992(Acuña et al, , 1997Macchi et al, 1996;Acha et al, 1999;Vizziano et al, 2001).…”

The white croaker Micropogonias furnieri, in the coastal Rocha Lagoon, spawned during 5 months, in late spring and summer. It was eurythermic (gonad growth at 12·5 to 25·5 C, spawning at 20 to 27 C) and mesoxic (living at 5·2 to 9·1 mg l 1 ). The spawning occurred in brackish (8-18 salinity), basic (c. 8 pH) and oxygenated (c. 8·0 mg l 1 ) waters. The temperature appeared to be an important environmental factor affecting the timing of reproduction. The size at first maturity (19-20 cm) was 11-12 cm lower than the reported for the Río de la Plata spawning area (Uruguay). Juveniles were observed throughout most of the year suggesting that the lagoon is also a nursery area. In Brazil, M. furnieri spawns in marine areas while in Uruguay it spawns in estuaries. This is the first time that a coastal lagoon of the subtropical and temperate western coast of the South Atlantic Ocean has been shown to be a spawning area of a marine species.

“…In Brazil, adult M. furnieri live and reproduce in marine waters adjacent to the coast and only the first life stages develop in estuaries and coastal lagoons (Castello 1986, Haimovici 1998, Sinque and Muelbert 1997, Tundisi and Matsumura-Tundisi 2000. Topography and meteorological conditions determine the dynamics of the Patos Lagoon estuary.…”

Influence of environmental factors on the spawning of sciaenids in the Buenos Aires Coastal Zone, Argentina

et al. 2013

ABSTRACT. The fish community in coastal waters of the Buenos Aires Province is dominated by seven sciaenid species: Micropogonias furnieri, Cynoscion guatucupa, Macrodon ancylodon, Pogonias cromis, Umbrina canosai, Paralonchurus brasiliensis, and Menticirrhus americanus. The relation between sciaenid spawning females and environmental factors was examined in order to describe the spawning strategy of these species in Argentine coastal waters. Sciaenid species were classified into three groups according to the thermohaline range of the spawning areas: (a) estuarine spawners associated with the bottom salinity front comprised those species that spawned in the inner area of the estuary in accordance with the main horizontal salinity gradients at the bottom (M. furnieri, M. ancylodon, and P. chromis); (b) estuarine spawners not associated with the bottom salinity front comprised those species that spawned mainly in the middle of the estuary, in brackish water with salinities ranging from 24 to 30 (P. brasiliensis and M. americanus); and (c) marine spawners comprised those species that always spawned in salt water (salinity values higher than 30) in the outer area of the Río de la Plata Estuary or El Rincón, in the southern part of Buenos Aires Province (C. guatucupa, U. canosai, and M. furnieri). Micropogonias furnieri, the most abundant sciaenid in Argentina that presents the highest latitudinal distribution, can behave as a marine or estuarine spawner depending on the environmental characteristics. This allows it to make better use of each ecosystem and thus increase its survival chances.Key words: Sciaenidae, spawning, environmental factors, Río de la Plata estuary.RESUMEN. La ictiofauna de las aguas costeras de la provincia de Buenos Aires está dominada por siete especies de esciénidos: Micropogonias furnieri, Cynoscion guatucupa, Macrodon ancylodon, Pogonias cromis, Umbrina canosai, Paralonchurus brasiliensis y Menticirrhus americanus. Con el propósito de describir la estrategia de desove de estas especies en las aguas costeras de Argentina, se analizó la relación entre las hembras de esciénidos en puesta y los factores ambientales. Las especies de esciénidos fueron clasificadas en tres grupos de acuerdo con el intervalo termohalino de las áreas de puesta: (a) desovante estuarino asociado al frente salino de fondo, incluyó las especies que desovaron principalmente en el área interna del estuario en concordancia con los mayores gradientes horizontales de salinidad de fondo (M. furnieri, M. ancylodon y P. cromis); (b) desovante estuarino no asociado al frente salino de fondo, incluyó las especies que desovaron principalmente en la zona media del estuario, en aguas salobres con salinidades que oscilaron entre 24 y 30 (P. brasiliensis y M. americanus); y (c) desovante marino, incluyó las especies que desovaron siempre en aguas marinas (valores de salinidad superiores a 30) tanto en la zona externa del estuario del Río de la Plata como en El Rincón, al sur de la provincia de Buenos Aires (C. guatucupa, U. canosai y ...

“…Todas as espécies descritas na América do Sul, foram, inicialmente, colocadas no gênero Diaptomus (Wright 1927). Posteriormente, as espécies com características comuns foram agrupadas, resultando em 11 gêneros (Brehm 1958) (Tundisi & MatsumuraTundisi 1968, 2001) e a segunda na Represa Aguapeú (Progama BIOTA/FAPESP 2003).…”

Copepoda Calanoida do Estado de São Paulo foi intensivamente estudado através da análise de 389 amostras obtidas dos corpos hidricos de 22 Unidades de Gerenciamento de Recursos Hidricos (UGRHI) do Estado de São Paulo durante o Programa BIOTA/FAPESP realizado entre 1999-2003. Foram identificadas 12 espécies sendo uma delas especie nova Notodiaptomus oliveirai foi encontrada em quase todas as bacias hidrográficas, exceto na UGRHI Alto Tietê. Uma outra espécie, provavelmente nova, necessita de um melhor estudo para a sua identificação. Algumas espécies de rara ocorrência já registradas no Estado de São Paulo tais como Idiodiaptomus gracilipes, Trichodiaptomus coronatus, Notodiaptomus conifer, N. spinuliferus, N. transitans, N. isabelae, N. jatobensis e Pseudodiaptomus acutus não foram encontradas nas amostragens do BIOTA/FAPESP.
