Preliminar results of paleontological salvage at Belo Monte Powerplant construction

Abstract: In this paper some preliminary fossil specimens are presented. They represent a collection sampled by Belo Monte's Programa de Salvamento do Patrimônio Paleontológico (PSPP), which includes unprecedented invertebrate fauna and fossil vertebrates from Pitinga, Jatapu, Manacapuru, Maecuru e Alter do Chão formations from Amazonas basin, Brazil. The Belo Monte paleontological salvage was able to recover 495 microfossil samples and 1744 macrofossil samples on 30 months of sampling activities, and it is still ongoin… Show more

“…The Manacapuru Member was elevated to the formation category by Caputo (1984). According to Cunha (2000), this unit is characterized by fine to medium sandstones interbedded with grayish and laminated mudstones, which occur alternately to layers of shale, with fossiliferous content composed mainly of chitinozoan, graptolites, acritarch, sporomorphs (Grahn 1992, Grahn and Paris 1992, Grahn and Melo 2003, Melo and Loboziak 2003, Cardoso and Rodrigues 2005, Steemans et al 2008 and brachiopods (Tomassi et al 2015).…”

“…Na região de instalação da Usina Hidroelétrica (UHE) de Belo Monte foi registrada por Tomassi et al (2015) a ocorrência de afloramentos das formações Pitinga, Manacapuru, Jatapu, Maecuru e Alter do Chão, onde durante o salvamento paleontológico foram recuperadas 1744 amostras, que estão depositadas na coleção paleontológica do Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi, com macrofósseis de vegetais, graptozoários, braquiópodes, moluscos, artrópodes, peixes agnatos e icnofósseis, além de outros somatofósseis não identificados, e mais palinomorfos (miósporos, acritarcos, cistos de algas, esporos de fungos e tipos indeterminados). Especificamente nas rochas atribuídas à Formação Manacapuru, os autores registraram a ocorrência de braquiópodes lingulídeos e rinconeliformeos, conularídeos, tentaculitídeos, raros malacostráceos e cefalópodes nautilóides.…”

“…Dentre a supracitada coleção, Tomassi et al (2015) noticiaram e figuraram a presença inédita de malacostráceos para a Formação Manacapuru, sem entretanto adequado tratamento sistemático. O estudo desses espécimens representa o registro inédito de filocarídeos e amplia o conhecimento sobre os eumalacostráceos do Paleozoico do Brasil, atualmente restrito aos isópodes do Permiano da Bacia do Paraná.…”
