1. Soft-bodied benthic algae in pristine Brazilian streams: from acid to karst
ABSTRACT This study evaluated soft-bodied benthic algae from seven streams located in protected areas of central Brazil (Parque Nacional de Brasília, Parque Nacional da Chapada dos Veadeiros and Parque Estadual de Terra Ronca), and related them to abiotic factors. We addressed the following questions: A) how algal community structure in Cerrado streams is i

2. Ecomorphological relationships of fish assemblages in a trans-Andean drainage, Upper Magdalena River Basin, Colombia
ABSTRACT Ecomorphological patterns of the fish community were evaluated in the trans-Andean Alvarado River drainage, Colombia. A total of 29 species using 25 ecomorphological indices were analyzed to test how well the ecomorphological patterns are related to the fish assemblage. Although a significant correlation was found (Mantel test) between morphological

3. Intra- and inter-annual variations in Chironomidae (Insecta: Diptera) communities in subtropical streams
The structure and composition of stream benthic communities are strongly influenced by spatial and temporal factors. This study evaluated the intra and inter-annual variations in Chironomidae communities in subtropical streams. The organisms were sampled from 10 small-order streams during the summer and winter of 2010-2012. The number of chironomid specimens

4. Effects of spatial and environmental factors on benthic a macroinvertebrate community
Interactions between terrestrial and aquatic systems influence the structure of river habitats and, consequently, affect their benthic macroinvertebrate composition. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of spatial and environmental variables (local physical and chemical variables of water and regional landscape characteristics) on the benthic ma

5. Avaliação da defesa química e da influência dos corais invasores Tubastraea coccinea e Tubastraea tagusensis na estruturação das comunidades bentônicas da Baía da Ilha Grande RJ / Assessment of chemical defense and negative impact of the invasive corals Tubastraea coccínea and Tubastraea tagusensis on benthic community structure in Ilha Grande Bay - RJ
A introdução de espécies invasoras marinhas tem causado danos econômicos e ecológicos consideráveis em todo o mundo. Algumas destas espécies incluindo corais escleractíneos possuem adaptações, tais como metabólitos secundários utilizados para evitar a predação e competição por espaço por outros organismos. Este arsenal químico e as interaç

6. Estructura de la comunidad de macroinvertebrados del arroyo Achiras (Córdoba, Argentina): análisis previo a la construcción de una presa
Regulation of rivers and streams modifies parameters that directly influence on the biota. In Achiras-del Gato endorheic basin has completed the construction of a midsize dam that will alter the limnological characteristics of the system and the structure of benthic communities. This study provides the first taxonomic records of macrobenthos of this lotic sy

7. Change in the meiofauna community structure of sandy beaches of the Nuevo Gulf (Chubut, Argentina)
The composition and distribution of the benthic meiofauna assemblages of the Nuevo Gulf (Chubut, Argentina) are described in relation to abiotic variables. The meiofauna and sediment samples were collected in the intertidal zone of four sandy beaches with different anthropic disturbances in June 2005. The samples were obtained at 20 sampling sites using a 2.

8. Estrutura das comunidades de Cumacea (Crustacea, Peracarida) da Plataforma Continental ao largo de Santos, São Paulo, Brasil / Community structure of Cumacea (Crustacea, Peracarida) from the Continental Shelf adjacent of Santos, São Paulo, Brazil
Cumáceos são crustáceos peracáridos cosmopolitas que se distribuem desde a zona entre-marés até os fundos abissais. Habitam fundos arenosos e lodosos e eventualmente são encontrados no ambiente pelagial. Apesar de sua importância na dieta de diversos organismos, e de serem considerados bons indicadores ambientais, poucos estudos ecológicos foram rea

9. Editorial
Harbor terminals and urban sewage effluents affect the composition and distribution of epibenthic organisms. In this study, we hypothesized that the benthic community structure at the Vitoria Harbor changes spatially in a ~3 km scale, and that these changes are associated with environmental gradients resulting from point-source sewage and differences in the

10. Macroinvertebrates associated with bryophyta in a first-order Atlantic Forest stream
This study describes the composition and structure of the benthic community associated with bryophytes in a first-order stream, located in a biological reserve of the Atlantic Forest, during two seasons. During three months of the dry season of 2007 and three months of the rainy season of 2008, samples of bryophytes attached to stones were collected randomly

11. Macrobenthic community structure in a Brazilian chocked lagoon system under environmental stress
Saquarema-Jaconé lagoonal system (SJLS) comprises a sequence of five interconnected shallow brackish lagoons with access to the sea by a single permanent tidal channel. It is a eutrophic system, receiving constant input of organic load from its urbanized catchments. The relationship between several environmental variables and the spatial-temporal distributi

12. CaracterizaÃÃo das AscÃdias em RegiÃes PortuÃrias do Cearà / Characterization of Ascidians in port regions of CearÃ
The ascidians are marine benthic invertebrates with worldwide distribution in oceans, occuring from intertidal zones to great depths. The brief planctonic lifetime of ascidians result in a restricted natural dispersion, indicating a potential high endemism. However, in response to the rapid economical development in coastal cities, constructions of harbors a
