Seasonal and depth-driven changes in rhodolith bed structure and associated macroalgae off Arvoredo island (southeastern Brazil)

Abstract: Lithothamnion crispatum was the dominant rhodolith species The predominance of spherical rhodoliths indicate high movement Rhodoliths density were higher in summer decreasing with increasing depth Associated macroalgae increased abundance and richness in the summer The assemblages differed between seasons and depths *Highlights (for review)

“…Among them, M. erubescens (Foslie 1900b: 9) Me. Lemoine (1928: 252) is the species most studied in this region (Figueiredo & Steneck 2000, Nunes et al 2008, Bahia et al 2010, Horta et al 2011, being unquestionably ecologically important , Scherner et al 2010, Pascelli et al 2013) and under threat due to growing exploitation of South Atlantic rhodolith beds (Riul et al 2008) among other stressors including coastal pollution and climate change (Wilson et al 2004, Turra et al 2013.…”

“…The low temperatures generated by these water masses affect the distribution of tropical marine organisms in the region (Boschi 2000;Floeter et al 2001Floeter et al , 2008Spalding et al 2007;Barneche et al 2009;Anderson et al 2014aAnderson et al , 2014b, precluding some of them from establishing southwards. Mangrove forests (Sobrinho et al 1969), corallith (Capel et al 2012) and rhodolith beds (Gherardi 2004;Pascelli et al 2013) are biological features of the landscape that reach their southern limit of distribution in the Southwestern Atlantic, precisely in the state of Santa Catarina. Coincidently, this state also represents the southern limit of occurrence of rocky reefs, with a large stretch of sandy beaches extending from it almost continuously to Uruguay.…”

“…Os bancos de rodolitos se estendem por praticamente toda a margem interna da plataforma continental brasileira (Foster, 2001), sendo abundantes do Rio de Janeiro até o litoral Maranhense (Milliman & Amaral, 1974;Bahia et al, 2010), mas também encontrados em ilhas oceânicas (Amado-Filho et al, 2012a, b), montanhas submarinas da cadeia Vitória-Trindade (Pereira-Filho et al, 2011) e em ilhas costeiras do sul do Brasil (Pascelli et al, 2013).…”

“…No litoral brasileiro, apesar dos esforços recentes, os bancos rodolitos e suas comunidades associadas são ainda relativamente pouco conhecidos, especialmente no Norte, Nordeste e Sul do Brasil (Riul et al, 2009;Pereira-Filho et al, 2011;Berchez et al, 2009;Amado-Filho et al, 2010;Pascelli et al, 2013). A carência total de informações ou mesmo de informações geradas de forma padronizada, representa uma grande limitação para o estabelecimento de políticas eficientes de conservação e manejo desses ambientes, que ocorrem desde áreas rasas até regiões relativamente profundas de nossa plataforma continental (Henriques et al, 2014).…”
