“…In the Paraguaçu River estuary there is only one study approaching communities of fish in the mouth (Reis-Filho, in press), and a work addressing expansion of geographical distribution (Santos et al 2009). Studies of faunal surveys constitute the initial step for biological studies and management of an area, by providing basic information on the composition and structure of the investigated fauna (Casatti et al 2001).…”

Estuaries are areas of recognized importance in the development and sanctuaries of fishes and also a great source of fishing resources. This article presents an inventory of fishes from the Paraguaçu River estuary, Todos os Santos Bay, Bahia, Brazil. 28 points comprising the saline sections that may exist in a tropical estuary were sampled quarterly from March 2009 to February 2010 with the aid of bottom gill nets, surface gill nets, seine net and casting net. A total of 4.097 individuals were captured, belonging to 7 species of Chondrichthyes and 117 species of Actinopterygii (83 genera and 49 families). Most of the geographical extent of the estuary was sampled by assessing large spatial variability in fish assemblage structure. The curve of species accumulation (rarefaction) had stabilization with ½ of the samples. The general structure of the assemblage is described and commented trough evidences for a new spatial organization of the fish fauna due to dam effects upstream the estuary. Resumo: Estuários são áreas de reconhecida importância no desenvolvimento e refúgio dos peixes e também grande fonte de recursos pesqueiros. Este artigo apresenta um inventário dos peixes do estuário do Rio Paraguaçu, Baía de Todos os Santos, Bahia, Brasil. 28 pontos constituindo as três seções salinas que pode haver em um estuário tropical foram amostradas trimestralmente de março de 2009 a fevereiro de 2010 com auxílio de redes de espera de fundo, de superfície, redes de arrasto manual e tarrafas. Um total de 4.097 indivíduos foram capturados, pertencendo a 7 espécies de Chondrichthyes e 117 espécies de Actinopterygii (83 gêneros e 49 famílias). A maioria da extensão territorial do estuário foi amostrada para acessar maior variabilidade espacial na estrutura da assembléia de peixes. A curva de acumulação de espécies (rarefação) apresentou estabilização com ½ das amostras. A estrutura geral da assembléia é descrita e comentada através de evidências para uma nova organização espacial da fauna de peixes devido a efeitos de barragem a montante do estuário.

REIS-FILHO Material and MethodsFishes were collected at 28 points within the Paraguaçu River estuary with quarterly samples between March 2009 and February 2010 (Figure 1). Several types of collectors were used: for marginal environments and with depths up to 3 m, trawl manual (12 m × 2 m with 12 mm mesh), gillnets (100 m × 3 m with 15 mm mesh) and flue (casting net ) (10 mm mesh). For environments with depth between 4 and 20 m, bottom gill nets (300 m × 3 m with 20 mm, 30 mm, 40 mm, 50 mm and 60 mm mesh) and surface gill nets (200 m × 4 m with 15 mm mesh) were used. In order to evaluate the ichthyofauna distribution in the estuary, this one was segmented into three sections (lower, middle and upper).

Moon and tide effects on fish capture in a tropical tidal flat

et al. 2010

The influence of the lunar phases and tidal range on the fish capture was analysed in a tidal flat in Barra do Paraguaçu (Baía de Todos os Santos). The sampling was realized in the flood tide and ebb tide of the spring (full moon) and neap (waning moon) tides, between June 2007 and May 2008. At all sampling occasions, two parallel drags were accomplished to the tidal flat, in the same direction of the current, in a 100 m long area marked on the beach beforehand, using a seine net of 15 m × 2.0 m with a mesh of 12 mm between adjacent knots. A total of 2312 fish specimens were captured (26.5 kg), belonging to 75 species from 45 families. The mean number of captured fish was significantly larger in full moon at ebb tides, while the mean weight in the captures was larger in ebb tides. There was significant difference in number of species, number of fish, richness and diversity between full and waning moons. The number of fish and biomass were significantly different between tides. Significant differences were found in community structure regarding trophic groups in relation to tide and moon, although the classic diversity indices did not capture this effect between tides. Furthermore, it was possible to identify preferences of occurrence related to the change of tide in dominant species.
