Análise faunística de afídeos (Hemiptera, Aphididae) na Serra do Mar, Paraná, Brasil

Abstract

ABSTRACT. Faunistic analysis of aphids (Hemiptera, Aphididae) in the Serra do Mar, Paraná, Brazil. A total of 8,134 aphids belonging to 87 species were collected with yellow pan traps during 13 months in Serra do Mar, Paraná State. Eleven places at different altitudes (-10 m to 1000 m above sea level -a.s.l.) were surveyed. The occurrence and dominance of the aphids were related to altitude, local flora, and environmental disruption. The number of specimens was the highest at 78 m and 555 m a.s.l., but most of the species were classified as rare. The common species registered were either polyphagous or had their preferential host plants present in the areas. The species Aphis spiraecola, Toxoptera aurantii, Brevicoryne brassicae, Tetraneura nigriabdominalis, and Uroleucon ambrosiae occurred in all surveyed areas. There was no clear relation between the faunistic data with the environmental conditions and altitude of the areas. Traps placed in transitional areas between the macroenvironments of the Dense Atlantic Montane Ombrophyllous Forest and the Mixed Ombrophyllous Forest collected the highest number of aphid species.KEYWORDS.

Foram coletados na Serra do Mar, Paraná, 8134 espécimes de afídeos pertencentes a 87 espécies usando armadilhas amarelas de água durante 13 meses em onze locais com um gradiente altitudinal entre -10 m sobre o nível do mar (s.n.m.) e 1000 m s.n.m. A ocorrência e a dominância dos afídeos foram correlacionadas com características ambientais de cada área, principalmente com a altitude, flora local e alterações antrópicas. O número mais elevado de espécimes foi entre 78 m e 555 m s.n.m., sendo a grande maioria das espécies classificada como raras. As espécies consideradas comuns coletadas em todos os locais foram as de hábito polífago e aquelas cujos hospedeiros preferenciais estavam presentes na área, como: Aphis spiraecola, Toxoptera aurantii, Brevicoryne brassicae, Tetraneura nigriabdominalis e Uroleucon ambrosiae. Não foi observada uma relação clara entre os índices faunísticos obtidos com a flora local e a altitude das áreas. As armadilhas colocadas em áreas de transição entre os macro-ambientes de Floresta Ombrófila Densa Atlântica Montana e de Floresta Ombrófila Mista capturaram o maior número de espécies de afídeos.PALAVRAS-CHAVE. Aphididae; armadilha de Möericke; ecologia de populações; Floresta Atlântica.

Crepuscular and Nocturnal Hawkmoths (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) from a Fragment of Atlantic Rainforest in the State of São Paulo, Southeastern Brazil

“…5), which suggest that the hawkmoth species composition of the SJBR was not fully sampled, another evidence for this possibility comes from the fact that 36% of the collected species (14 out of 39) were represented by only a single specimen. This is a very high proportion, as clearly demonstrated by comparison with other standardized sphingid surveys in the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest, e.g., by Coelho et al (1979), Laroca & Mielke (1975), Duarte & Schlindwein (2008), Primo et al (2013) and Cruz-Neto et al (2011), which obtained respectively 0%, 13%, 16%, 26% and 29% of species represented by a single individual. Moreover, a simple visual inspection of Fig.…”

“…This is a surprising result, because this genus is frequently one of the commonest and richest found in surveys in the Atlantic Rainforest, especially in open degraded environments where host plants from the family Euphorbiaceae are usually abundant (these plants are considered pioneers growing after deforestation; 10 species are know to occur in SJBR -see Leitão-Filho 1992). In fact, Erinnyis was by far the most abundant genus in the studies of Laroca & Mielke (1975), Coelho et al (1979) and Duarte & Schlindwein (2008), and was represented by 5, 3 and 5 species, respectively. In Boraceia it was the third most abundant genus (12% of the individuals collected) and was represented by 6 species.…”

“…These unparalleled pattern also has been recognizable at the geographical level or country level. Brazil has the highest number of plant species around the world but only 87 aphid species listed for Brazil aphid fauna (Lazzarotto & Lazzari, 2005). Lower aphid species diversity might be related with way of their reproduction.…”

“…Para o Brasil, Sousa- Silva & Ilharco (1995) publicaram uma lista preliminar das espécies de afídeos que ocorrem no país e suas respectivas plantas hospedeiras. Atualmente são conhecidas 167 espécies para o país (Lázzari et al 1996(Lázzari et al , 1999(Lázzari et al , 2006Lazzarotto & Lázzari 2005;Sousa-Silva & Ilharco 2001a, b, 2002Sousa-Silva et al 2003;Lázzari & Cardoso 2011;Cunha & Sousa-Silva 2019;Nibouche et al 2021). A lista apresentada por Sousa- Silva & Ilharco (1995) baseia-se na classificação proposta por Ilharco (1992), com oito famílias atuais.…”
