Resumo: The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of pollutants on the abundance and diversity of Collembola in urban soils. The research was carried out in three parks (Cişmigiu, Izvor and Unirea) in downtown Bucharest, where the intense car traffic accounts for 70% of the local air pollution. One site in particular (Cişmigiu park) was highly contaminated with Pb, Cd, Zn and Cu at about ten times the background levels of Pb. Collembola were sampled in 2006 (July, September, November) using the transect method: 2,475áindividuals from 34áspecies of Collembola were collected from 210ásamples of soil and litter. Numerical densities differed significantly between the studied sites.The influence of air pollutants on the springtail fauna was visible at the species richness diversity and soil pollution levels. Species richness was lowest in the most contaminated site (Cismigiu, 11 species), which presented an increase in springtails abundances, though. Some species may become resistant to pollution and occur in high numbers of individuals in polluted sites, which makes them a good bioindicator of pollutants.

A pesquisa foi conduzida em três parques (Cismigiu, Izvor e Unirea) no centro de Bucareste, onde o tráfego intenso de carros é responsável por 70% da poluição do ar local. Um local em particular (parque Cismigiu) está altamente contaminado com Pb, Cd, Zn e Cu, com nível de Pb dez vezes superior aos níveis de fundo. Os Collembola foram coletados em 2006 (julho, setembro, novembro), usando o método de transecto: foram coletados 2.475 indivíduos de 34 espécies de Collembola a partir de 210 amostras de solo e serapilheira. As densidades numéricas diferiram significativamente entre os locais estudados. A influência da poluição do ar na fauna de colêmbolos foi visível em termos de riqueza de espécies e do grau de poluição do solo. A riqueza de espécies foi menor no local mais contaminado (Cismigiu, 11 espécies), que apresentou, no entanto, aumento na abundância de colêmbolos. Algumas espécies podem tornar-se resistentes à poluição e ocorrer com elevada abundância em locais poluídos, o que as torna boas bioindicadoras de poluentes.    Pesquisa Agropecuaria BrasileiraPesquisa Agropecuária BrasileiraFiera, Cristina2010-11-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/1296Pesquisa Agropecuaria Brasileira; v.44, n.8, ago. 2009: Thematic Issue XV International Colloquium on Soil Zoology and XX Colloquium on Apterygota; 868-873Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira; v.44, n.8, ago. 2009: Thematic Issue XV International Colloquium on Soil Zoology and XX Colloquium on Apterygota; 868-8731678-39210100-104xreponame:Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online)instname:Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)instacron:EMBRAPAporhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/1296/5775info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2012-06-17T11:52:05Zoai:ojs.seer.sct.embrapa.br:article/1296Revistahttp://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pabPRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phppab@sct.embrapa.br || sct.pab@embrapa.br1678-39210100-204Xopendoar:2012-06-17T11:52:05Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online) - Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)false
