Resumo: | Among the organisms of the benthic community, oligochaetes play a key role in the energy low and recycling of organic matter in aquatic ecosystems, where their distribution is mainly influenced by local hydrological patterns. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the influence of environmental variables on the community of limnic oligochaetes in a neotropical lotic system. Galharada stream is located within the Campos do Jordão State Park (PECJ), in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, 1,600 m above sea level; 192 samples were collected from 4 sites selected according to their hierarchical order within the river basin (first to fourth order). To correlate the environmental variables to the oligochaete fauna, the Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) was performed. We identified 16 species divided into 4 families (Enchytraeidae, Naididae, Pristinidae, and Tubiicidae). The results of CCA revealed that the physical characteristics of stretches, such as stream depth and width, low speed, and low rate were the factors that most inluenced on the structure of the aquatic Oligochaeta community in Campos do Jordão. The species Aulodrilus limnobius and Nais communis were considered along with the variables electrical conductivity and turbidity, indicating a possible association with environments enriched with organic matter. The occurrence of Enchytraeidae, Pristina rosea, Chaetogaster diastrophus, Pristina proboscidea, and Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri was seemingly uncorrelated to the environmental variables analyzed in this study. Our findings reinforce using the Oligochaeta community as bioindicators, by participating in the environmental assessment of continental aquatic ecosystems. |

Influence of environmental variables on the Oligochaeta (Annelida: Clitellata) community in a neotropical streamInfluência de variáveis ambientais sobre a comunidade de oligoquetos (Annelida: Clitellata) em um córrego neotropicalAmong the organisms of the benthic community, oligochaetes play a key role in the energy low and recycling of organic matter in aquatic ecosystems, where their distribution is mainly influenced by local hydrological patterns.

Assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a influência das variáveis ambientais sobre a comunidade de oligoquetos límnicos em um sistema lótico neotropical. O córrego Galharada está localizado no Parque Estadual de Campos do Jordão (PECJ), no estado de São Paulo, 1.600 m acima do nível do mar; 192 amostras foram coletadas em quatro pontos selecionados segundo sua ordem hierárquica dentro da bacia hidrográfica (primeira à quarta ordem). A fim de correlacionar as variáveis ambientais e a fauna de oligoquetos utilizou-se a Análise de Correspondência Canônica (CCA). Foram identificadas 16 espécies divididas em quatro famílias (Enchytraeidae, Naididae, Pristinidae e Tubificidae). Os resultados da CCA revelaram que as características físicas dos trechos, como profundidade e largura do córrego, velocidade do fluxo e vazão foram os fatores que mais influenciaram a estrutura da comunidade de oligoquetos aquáticos em Campos do Jordão. As espécies Aulodrilus limnobius e Nais communis foram projetadas junto às variáveis condutividade elétrica e turbidez, indicando possível associação com ambientes enriquecidos com matéria orgânica. A ocorrência de Enchytraeidae, Pristina rosea, Chaetogaster diastrophus, Pristina proboscidea e Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri, aparentemente, não apresentou correlação com as variáveis ambientais analisadas neste estudo. Nossos resultados reforçam a utilização da comunidade de oligoquetos como bioindicadores, participando de processos de avaliação de ecossistemas aquáticos continentais.
