“…Fluctuations in water regimen allow great habitat diversification, i.e. more tolerant species can occupy distinct regions of the drainage area, in addition to changing the limnological characteristics of streams (SHUVART et al 2005, ABURAYA & CALLIL 2007, ROQUE et al 2007. SILVA et al (2014) also observed that Chironomidae diversity was higher during the years when the abiotic charac- (Figs.…”

Biota Neotrop. 11(1a): http://www.biotaneotropica.org.br/v11n1a/en/abstract?inventory+bn0351101a2011.Abstract: In this paper we present an updated inventory (June/2010) of the Chironomidae species from the State of São Paulo. Altogether 149 species are listed (91 Chironominae, 44 Orthocladiinae, 13 Tanypodinae and 1 Podonominae) accompanied by information about the known life stages and additional comments on some taxa with dubious nomenclature and / or modified nomenclature.

“…Ilha Grande National Park is located in the Southern region of the Paraná river floodplain (SOUZA FILHO;STEVAUX, 2004) and represents the last dam-free stretch of the Paraná River, upstream from the Itaipu Reservoir considered a great potential to biodiversity conservation of the region (CAMPOS, 1999). This area presents several floodplain lakes that may maintain constant or intermittent connections with the channels, or may be fed exclusively by the groundwater, with river water entering only during flood periods (SOUZA-FILHO;STEVAUX, 2004).…”

“…This area presents several floodplain lakes that may maintain constant or intermittent connections with the channels, or may be fed exclusively by the groundwater, with river water entering only during flood periods (SOUZA-FILHO;STEVAUX, 2004). In floodplain lakes, Chironomidae larvae usually is the group most abundant (HIGUTI; TAKEDA, 2002;TAKEDA et al, 2004), considered an important tool in the ecological studies (ASHE et al, 1987;EPLER, 2001;SIQUEIRA et al, 2008;ROQUE et al, 2007), since they have high species richness (EPLER, 2001;ROQUE et al, 2010), are widely distributed in the world (FERRINGTON, 2008), and occupy almost every available niche (EPLER, 2001;TAKEDA et al, 2004), where they play different trophic roles (SIQUEIRA et al, 2008;TAKEDA et al, 2004). However, little is known about their interactions with the environment and the interspecific interactions (FRANQUET, 1999).…”

ABSTRACT. Chironomidae larvae (Diptera) are one of the most important families among aquatic insects due to the higher abundance and species richness, considered an important tool for ecological studies. This study evaluated the richness of Chironomidae assemblage and related the distribution with physical and chemical variables in five lakes of the Paraná river, in the Ilha Grande National Park. There were two samplings, one in the central region and another in the marginal area of the floodplain lakes. In each region were collected six samples, five for biological analysis and one for granulometric analysis. The granulometric composition and organic matter content were the principal variables influencing the density and richness of Chironomidae. The scores of the abiotic data distinguished the marginal lakes (São João, Jacaré and Xambrê) from the island lakes (Saraiva and Jatobá). The same segregation was observed in the distribution of Chironomidae morphotypes, and environments with higher values of organic matter, presented the lowest density and taxa richness. Thus, in this study the environmental variables directly interfered in the distribution, abundance and richness of Chironomidae of the floodplain lakes from Ilha Grande National Park, contributing to the knowledge of the diversity of this group in this area.Keywords: floodplain lakes, composition, abundance.Distribuição espacial da assembleia de larvas de Chironomidae (Diptera) de cinco lagoas de inundação do Parque Nacional de Ilha Grande (Estado do Paraná -Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil) RESUMO. As larvas de Chironomidae (Diptera) constituem uma das principais famílias entre os insetos aquáticos por sua alta abundância e riqueza taxonômica, consideradas importantes ferramentas nos estudos ecológicos. Este estudo teve por objetivo avaliar a riqueza da assembleia de Chironomidae e relacionar a distribuição desta com variáveis físicas e químicas de cinco lagoas do rio Paraná, no Parque Nacional de Ilha Grande. Foram realizadas duas coletas: uma na região central e outra na região marginal das lagoas. Em cada região foram coletadas seis amostras, cinco para análises biológicas e uma para análise granulométrica. A composição granulométrica e o teor de matéria orgânica foram as principais variáveis que influenciaram a densidade e a riqueza de Chironomidae. Os escores dos dados abióticos separaram as lagoas marginais (São João, Jacaré e Xambrê) das lagoas localizadas na Ilha Grande (Saraiva e Jatobá). A mesma separação foi observada na distribuição dos morfotipos de Chironomidae, cujos ambientes com maiores valores de matéria orgânica apresentaram as menores densidade e riqueza de táxons. Portanto, neste trabalho, as variáveis ambientais interferiram diretamente na distribuição, abundância e riqueza de Chironomidae das lagoas de inundação do Parque Nacional de Ilha Grande, contribuindo para o conhecimento da diversidade deste grupo na área.Palavras-chave: lagoas de inundação, composição, abundância.
