Resumo: This study tested the hypothesis that the reproductive cycle of bivalve Phacoides pectinatus from Ceará river estuary, at semiarid coast of Brazil, is influenced by rainfall and dry seasonal variations. Thus, the seasonality of gonadal development stages of P. pectinatus was evaluated by histological analyzes of the gonads and correlated with temporal variations of temperature, salinity, and local rainfall. Specimens (> 8mm) were collected monthly from April 2008 to September 2009. Four stages of gonadal development were identified. A total of 366 specimens were analyzed and measured between 8.93 mm and 68.5 mm of total shell length. The P. pectinatus population in the Ceará river estuary presented a 1:1 sexual ratio with continuous reproduction, strongly conditioned by precipitation and salinity variations. The gametogenesis was predominant in February to May (rainy season) and the ripe and spawning occurs in July to December (dry period). The increased rainfall with the consequent decrease in salinity act as natural disturbance in the estuary, on an annual rate, contributing to the renewal of the population.

Assim, a sazonalidade dos estágios de desenvolvimento gonadal de P. pectinatus foi avaliada por análises histológicas das gônadas e correlacionada com variações temporais de temperatura, salinidade e precipitação locais. Exemplares adultos foram coletados mensalmente de abril de 2008 a setembro de 2009, totalizando 366 indivíduos apresentando entre 8,93 mm e 68,5 mm de comprimento total de concha. Foram identificados quatro estágios de desenvolvimento gonadal. A população de P. pectinatus no estuário do rio Ceará apresentou razão sexual de 1:1, com reprodução contínua, fortemente condicionada por variações de precipitação e salinidade. A gametogênese foi predominante em fevereiro a maio (período chuvoso) e o estado maturo e a liberação de gametas ocorreram de julho a dezembro (período seco). O aumento das chuvas, com a consequente diminuição da salinidade, agem como perturbação natural no estuário, a uma taxa anual, contribuindo para a renovação da população.Instituto de Ciências do Mar2019-05-24T14:16:18Z2019-05-24T14:16:18Z2018info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfSANTANA, L.
