Resumo: The benthic macroinvertebrates are organisms of extremely importance to the energy flow of lotic ecosystems, acting as a link between basal resourcers and predators. This study aimed to analyze patterns of abundance, richness and diversity of a benthic macroinvertebrates community in different types of substrate and different velocities of water. The study was carried on in a stretch of 40 meters of a headwater stream located at the Tijuca National Park, the Tijuca River. The sampling was perfomed in September 2016. We sampled four types of samples, which we denominated as “habitats”: litter in riffle, litter in pool, sand in riffle and sand in pool. A total total of 2.208 individuals were collected, with most of them being immature insects. We confirmed our assumptions by finding difference between the composition of the four types of habitats. It was found higher abundance, richness and diversity in litter habitats, confirming that the characteristics of this type of substrate are more favorable for the majority of the benthic macrofauna.

El objetivo del estudio fue analizar patrones de abundancia, riqueza y diversidad de una comunidad de macroinvertebrados bentônicos en diferentes tipos de sustrato y diferentes velocidades del agua. El estudio se realizó en un tramo de 40 metros de un rio de cabecera ubicado dentro del Parque Nacional Tijuca, el río Tijuca. La colección se realizó en septiembre de 2016 Se recogieron cuatro tipos de muestras, que llamamos "hábitats": hojarasca en rápido, hojarasca en remanso, arena en rápido y arena en remanso. Se recolectaron un total de 2.208 especímenes, en su mayoría insectos inmaduros. Corroboramos nuestros supuestos al encontrar una diferencia en la composición entre los cuatro tipos de hábitat estudiados. Encontramos una mayor abundancia, riqueza y diversidad en los hábitats de hojarasca, lo que confirma que las características de este tipo de sustrato son más favorables para la mayoría de las macrofaunas bentónicas.Os macroinvertebrados bentônicos são organismos de extrema importância para o fluxo de energia em ecossistemas lóticos, atuando como um elo entre os recursos basais e predadores.

O estudo foi feito em um trecho de 40 metros de um riacho de cabeceira localizado dentro do Parque Nacional da Tijuca, o Rio Tijuca. A coleta foi feita em setembro de 2016. Foram amostrados quatro tipos de amostras, as quais denominamos de “habitats”: folhiço de corredeira, folhiço de poça, areia de corredeira e areia de poça. Foram coletados um total de 2.208 exemplares, sendo em sua maioria insetos imaturos. Corroboramos nossas premissas ao encontramos diferença na composição entre os quatro tipos de habitats estudados. Encontramos maiores abundância, riqueza e diversidade nos habitats de folhiço, confirmando que as características desse tipo de substrato são mais favoráveis para a maioria da macrofauna bentônica.Research, Society and Development2020-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/184810.33448/rsd-v9i1.1848Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 No. 1; e149911848Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 Núm. 1; e149911848Research, Society and Development; v. 9 n. 1; e1499118482525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/1848/1538Copyright (c) 2020 Vitor Manuel Barros Ferreira, João Luiz Caíres Souza, Maíra Moraesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFerreira, Vitor Manuel BarrosSouza, João Luiz DE CaíresMoraes, Maíra2020-08-19T03:04:08Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/1848Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:26:44.209523Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
