1. Fishes community composition and patterns of species distribution in Neotropical streams
Resumo: A ictiofauna de riachos na região Neotropical ainda não é totalmente conhecida. Este estudo objetiva investigar a composição da ictiofauna de seis riachos da sub-bacia do rio Ijuí, estado do Rio Grande do Sul, inseridos na bacia do rio Uruguai, de forma a contribuir no conhecimento da riqueza e distribuição de espécies de peixes no sul do Br

2. Molecular characterization and genetic relationships of seven piranha species of the genera Serrasalmus and Pygocentrus (Characiformes: Serrasalmidae) from Paraná-Paraguay, São Francisco and Tocantins River basins in Brazil
Resumo Relações genéticas e filogenéticas de sete espécies de piranhas dos gêneros Serrasalmus e Pygocentrus das bacias hidrográficas Paraná-Paraguai, São Francisco e Tocantins foram avaliadas com base em sequências parciais dos genes mitocondriais Citocromo b e Citocromo c Oxidase I. Foram realizadas análises filogenéticas de Máxima Verossimilh

3. Legacies of intensive management in forests around pre-columbian and modern settlements in the Madeira-Tapajós interfluve, Amazonia
ABSTRACT Amazonian peoples use and manage plant populations in previously domesticated landscapes, but the extent of landscape transformation remains uncertain, especially in interfluvial areas. We tested the hypothesis that useful plant communities vary in richness, abundance and basal area around pre-Columbian and current settlements independent of the dis

4. Riparian vegetation structure and soil variables in Pandeiros river, Brazil
Resumo Este estudo analisou as variações florísticas, estruturais e suas relações com variáveis do solo em dois trechos de vegetação ripária em uma região ecotonal entre savana e zonas semi-áridas. Propomos a hipótese de que, apesar da proximidade entre as áreas amostradas, as condições do solo são distintas e levam a mudanças na estrutura e

5. Can nearby eutrophic reservoirs sustain a differentiated biodiversity of planktonic microcrustaceans in a tropical semiarid basin?
ABSTRACT This paper aims to compare alpha and beta diversities of planktonic microcrustaceans from three reservoirs located nearby in a tropical semiarid basin. Our hypothesis was that alpha and beta diversities of the community are different, although the ecosystems are located close to each other. We carried out two sampling campaigns: dry and rainy season

6. Spatial Distribution of Annual and Monthly Rainfall Erosivity in the Jaguarí River Basin
ABSTRACT The Jaguarí River Basin forms the main water supply sources for the São Paulo Metropolitan Region and other cities in the state. Since the kinetic energy of rainfall is the driving force of water erosion, the main cause of land and water degradation, we tested the hypothesis of correlation between the erosive potential of rainfall (erosivity) and

7. High genetic diversity among and within bitter manioc varieties cultivated in different soil types in Central Amazonia
Abstract Although manioc is well adapted to nutrient-poor Oxisols of Amazonia, ethnobotanical observations show that bitter manioc is also frequently cultivated in the highly fertile soils of the floodplains and Amazonian dark earths (ADE) along the middle Madeira River. Because different sets of varieties are grown in each soil type, and there are agronomic

8. Verificação da solução das equações de Saint-Venant com base no método difusivo de lax para propagação de vazões em canais naturais
ABSTRACT Hydrodynamic models, based on the Saint-Venant equations, represent the transient flow in water systems, and simulate flow routing over time and space. Several numerical solutions have been applied to these expressions, but often differences are found in results among distinct procedures, considering that all numerical approaches have limitations. N

9. Growth and reproductive biology of the amphidromous shrimp Palaemon pandaliformis (Decapoda: Caridea) in a Neotropical river from northeastern Brazil
ABSTRACT Population biology, growth and reproductive aspects of the amphidromous shrimp Palaemon pandaliformis (Stimpson, 1871) were investigated in a Neotropical river of northeastern Brazil. The specimens were collected every month from September 2009 to August 2010. Total and monthly sex ratios deviated in favour of males. Von Bertalanffy growth parameter

10. Genetic diversity and population structure of bocachico Prochilodus magdalenae (Pisces, Prochilodontidae) in the Magdalena River basin and its tributaries, Colombia
Prochilodus magdalenae is an endemic freshwater fish that occurs in the Magdalena, Sinú and Atrato hydrographic basins. It has an important economic role and is a food resource for the artisanal fishing communities. Its socioeconomic importance contrasts with the current status of its fisheries, where stocks are being depleted. Considering its importance an

11. Composition of shrimp populations (Crustacea: Decapoda) in non-vegetated areas of two river islands in a Brazilian Amazon estuary
This study investigates the shrimp found in non-vegetated areas of an estuary of the Amazon River. We ascertained the input of juveniles, species' biometrics and the influence of environmental factors on the abundance of species. The samples were collected monthly, from August 2006 to July 2007, in two places in the estuary, each next to an island. For colle

12. Socio-economic and spatial determinants of anthropogenic predation on Yellow-spotted River Turtle, Podocnemis unifilis (Testudines: Pelomedusidae), nests in the Brazilian Amazon: Implications for sustainable conservation and management
Human expansion has drastically affected wildlife species across Amazonian waterways and the continued increase in rural populations across Amazonia is likely to increase pressure on widely exploited chelonian species. The lack of information evaluating determinants of human consumption patterns limits the effective implementation of conservation strategies.
