Aquatic insect communities in small stream in the south of Brazil

Componentes da paisagem associados à silvicultura na Mata Atlântica que influenciam a comunidade de macroinvertebrados aquáticos: um estudo de caso no sul do Brasil

“…The BMWP' results in this study are similar to those found in agricultural regions (e.g. Zequi et al, 2019). The lowest values found here are similar to the highest value found near headwater in an urban watercourse from the same municipality (Crisigiovanni et al, 2020).…”

“…The lowest values found here are similar to the highest value found near headwater in an urban watercourse from the same municipality (Crisigiovanni et al, 2020). The %Chironomidae was very lower than found in agriculture-associated sites (Zequi et al, 2019), but similar to that found in protected sites (e.g. Restello et al, 2020), reinforcing the generally good condition of the stream.…”

New arthropod-Podostemaceae associations in Central and South America

“…However, on P. rutifolium and P. muelleri , Coleoptera were dominant (Table 3 ). It is not surprising that Diptera were abundant because they commonly comprise most arthropods in aquatic arthropod samples ( Tavares et al 1998 ; Zequi et al 2019 ). We found relatively high abundance of Trichoptera and Lepidoptera , with a higher proportion of Trichoptera than previously reported on Podostemaceae ( Tavares et al 1998 ).…”

Levantamento da entomofauna aquática associada ao estado de conservação da mata ciliar de propriedades leiteiras no Vale do Taquari/RS

“…Conforme Serra et al (2017) estes os organismos necessitam de níveis mais precisos de identificação para comprovarem a sua sensibilidade. Nossos resultados estão de acordo com diversos estudos realizados em áreas agrícolas que executam atividades voltadas a pecuária em que está família apresenta grande abundância (BRACCIA et al, 2006;HEPP et al, 2009;BAPTISTA et al, 2014;STEWART et al, 2014;COSTA, 2015;SERRA, 2017;PERALTA et al, 2018;CORTESE et al, 2019;ZEQUI et al, 2019).…”
