Resumo: | The objective of the present study was to analyze the environmental quality of a forest fragment of the Atlantic Forest close to an urban area. The study was carried out in Vitório Piassa State Park, located in the municipality of Pato Branco, Paraná, Brazil. Beetles from the subfamily Scarabaeinae were collected with pitfall traps in three different areas in the park, between February and March 2015. A total of 945 individuals and 22 species were collected, of which 366 individuals and 18 species were found in the densest vegetation area, 291 individuals and 18 species in the secondary vegetation area, and 288 individuals and 16 species in the most anthropized area. The most abundant species were Dichotomius mormon and Eurysternus parallelus, accounting for more than 50% of the total captured individuals. Diversity indices (Shannon and Simpson) and equitability (Pielou) were higher in the area with secondary vegetation, probably because it is an intermediate area, both in spatial and temporal terms. Similarity analysis based on the Bray-Curtis index showed the formation of two groups: one consisting of the assemblages of regenerating areas and the other only of the densest vegetation area, mainly due to the great abundance of beetles in this area. Thus, it was possible to observe that the Park maintains a habitat quality that allows the sheltering of a great abundance of many dung beetle species, mainly in the most conserved areas. |

O presente trabalho teve como objetivo analisar a qualidade ambiental em um fragmento florestal de Mata Atlântica próximo a uma área urbana. O estudo foi realizado no Parque Estadual Vitório Piassa, situado no município de Pato Branco, Paraná, onde coletas de besouros da subfamília Scarabaeinae foram realizadas através de armadilhas de queda em três áreas distintas dentro do parque, entre fevereiro e março de 2015. Foram coletados no total 945 indivíduos pertencentes a 22 espécies, dos quais 366 indivíduos de 18 espécies foram coletados na área de vegetação mais densa, 291 de 18 espécies na área de vegetação secundária e 288 de 16 espécies na área mais antropizada. As espécies mais abundantes foram Dichotomius mormon e Eurysternus parallelus, somando juntas mais de 50% do total de indivíduos capturados. Os índices de diversidade (Shannon e Simpson) e de equitabilidade (Pielou) foram maiores na área com vegetação secundária, o que pode ser explicado por ser uma área intermediária, tanto em termos espaciais como temporais. A análise de similaridade baseada no índice de Bray-Curtis mostrou a formação de dois grupos: um constituído pelas assembleias das áreas em regeneração e o outro apenas pela área de vegetação mais densa, principalmente devido à grande abundância de besouros nesta área. Assim, foi possível observar que o Parque mantém uma qualidade de habitat que permite abrigar uma grande abundância de muitas espécies de escarabeíneos, principalmente nas áreas mais conservadas.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2017-09-05info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/article/view/2175-7925.2017v30n3p4910.5007/2175-7925.2017v30n3p49Biotemas; v. 30 n. 3 (2017); 49-592175-79250103-1643reponame:Biotemas (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/article/view/2175-7925.2017v30n3p49/34628Copyright (c) 2017 Aline Bugoni, Malva Isabel Medina Hernández, Rodrigo Lingnauinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBugoni, AlineMedina Hernández, Malva IsabelLingnau, Rodrigo2019-03-06T11:41:21Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/46896Revistahttp://www.biotemas.ufsc.br/index.htmPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/oai||carlospinto@ccb.ufsc.br2175-79250103-1643opendoar:2019-03-06T11:41:21Biotemas (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false |
