Resumo: | The patterns of aquatic insect diversity are influenced by landscape structure and environmental gradients that can be altered significantly through changes in land use. The aim of the present study was to verify if the patterns of diversity of the orders Odonata and Trichoptera vary significantly between preserved and altered sites, along a gradient of environmental impact. Data were collected on the structural and environmental characteristics of the stream, and the assemblages of aquatic insects at seven sampling points in a Cerrado-Caatinga ecotone of northeastern Brazil, in the dry seasons of 2018 and 2019. The results indicated that altered streams had higher electrical conductivity and lowest HII (habitat integrity index) values in comparison with the preserved ones, being determinant in the distribution of genera, and low pH values increased genera richness, informations that can guide management strategies for biodiversity conservation. Which supports the conclusion that the diversity of aquatic insects is determined by the influence of environmental filters in the streams. |

O objetivo do presente estudo foi verificar se os padrões de diversidade das ordens Odonata e Trichoptera variam significativamente entre locais preservados e alterados, ao longo de um gradiente de impacto ambiental. Foram coletados dados sobre as características estruturais e ambientais do córrego e das assembleias de insetos aquáticos em sete pontos de amostragem em um ecótono Cerrado-Caatinga do Nordeste, Brasil, nas estações secas de 2018 e 2019. Os resultados indicaram que córregos alterados apresentaram maiores valores de condutividade elétrica e menores valores de IIH (índice de integridade de habitat) em comparação aos preservados, sendo determinantes na distribuição de gêneros, e baixos valores de pH aumentaram a riqueza de gêneros, informações que podem orientar estratégias de manejo para a conservação da biodiversidade. Reforçando a conclusão de que a diversidade de insetos aquáticos é determinada pela influência de filtros ambientais nos riachos.Universidade Federal de Campina Grande - UFCG2020-09-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://revistas.ufcg.edu.br/ActaBra/index.php/actabra/article/view/36210.22571/2526-4338362Acta Brasiliensis; Vol 4 No 3 (2020): Acta Brasiliensis; 142-148Acta Brasiliensis; Vol 4 No 3 (2020): Acta Brasiliensis; 142-148Acta Brasiliensis; Vol 4 No 3 (2020): Acta Brasiliensis; 142-1482526-43382526-432Xreponame:Acta Brasiliensis (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Campina Grande (UFCG)instacron:UFCGenghttp://revistas.ufcg.edu.br/ActaBra/index.php/actabra/article/view/362/104Viana, Carolina GomesCampos, Ingrid ReisLustosa, Guilherme SantanaVeras, Daniel Silasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-07-12T20:03:34Zoai:ActaBra.revistas.ufcg.edu.br:article/362Revistahttp://revistas.ufcg.edu.br/ActaBraPUBhttp://revistas.ufcg.edu.br/ActaBra/index.php/actabra/oaiactabrasiliensis@gmail.com || actabrasiliensis@gmail.com2526-432X2526-4338opendoar:2021-07-12T20:03:34Acta Brasiliensis (Online) - Universidade Federal de Campina Grande (UFCG)false |
