Estudos acerca da relação peso-comprimento em peixes são importantes ferramentas para descrever diversos aspetos biológicos das espécies. Consequentemente, estes estudos são importantes em decorrência da necessidade de compreensão do ciclo de vida dos peixes. Sendo assim, este estudo visou estabelecer a relação peso-comprimento de dez espécies mais comuns de peixes na região do baixo Rio Nhamundá, afluente da margem esquerda do Rio Amazonas. A captura dos peixes foi realizada em janeiro de 2008, utilizando redes de emalhar. Foram analisados 807 indivíduos, pertencentes a dez espécies e três Ordens (Characiformes, Siruliformes e Clupeiformes). O coeficiente alométrico "b" variou de 2,680 à 3,698. A relação peso-comprimento é apresentada pela primeira vez para duas espécies: Anostomoides laticeps e Ageneiosus polystictus. Por fim, esse estudo enfatiza a importância de estudos de relação peso-comprimento de peixes na Amazônia e o uso de dados primários para fins conservacionistas. Studies on the length-weight relationship (LWR) of fishes are an important tool to describe several biological aspects of the species. Consequently, these studies are relevant due the necessity of comprehension about fish life cycle. Thus, this study aimed to establish the length-weight relationship of the ten most common fish in the Lower Nhamundá River, left tributary of the Amazon River. The capture of fish was conducted in January 2008 using gill nets. A total of 807 individuals, ten species and three Orders (Characiformes, Siluriformes and Clupeiformes) were analyzed. The parameter b varied from 2.680 to 3.698. The LWR were shown for the first time for two species: Anostomoides laticeps and Ageneiosus polystictus. Finally, this research emphasizes the importance of LWR studies in the Amazon and the use of primary data for fisheries management plans. UFPA - Universidade Federal do Pará

CNPq - Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico Um estudo de campo sobre a proporção sexual, relação peso-comprimento, tamanho de primeira maturação gonadal e o período reprodutivo da pirarara, Phractocephalus hemioliopterus foi realizado na região do Médio Rio Xingu, na Amazônia oriental. Os espécimes foram coletados trimestralmente entre setembro de 2012 e janeiro de 2014, utilizando redes malhadeiras e espinheis. A proporção sexual foi balanceada, e machos e fêmeas foram equivalentes quanto ao comprimento padrão, mas fêmeas foram mais pesadas do que machos. Crescimento alométrico negativo foi evidenciado para machos e crescimento isométrico para fêmeas. O tamanho estimado de primeira maturação sexual foi igual a 77,8 cm. A variação do índice gonadossomático e a maior frequência de indivíduos maduros evidenciaram uma maior atividade reprodutiva no começo do período de águas altas (enchente). Considerando P. hemioliopterus como uma espécie de interesse comercial, as informações aqui apresentadas poderão ser uteis para um futuro plano de conservação e manejo como o estabelecimento de um tamanho mínimo de captura e período de defeso para a região. Além disso, poderá ser útil para avaliar potenciais impactos na biologia dos peixes em decorrência das mudanças ambientais provocadas pela construção da barragem de Belo Monte. A field study of the sex ratio, length-weight ratio, body size at first gonadal maturation, and the breeding season of the red-tailed catfish, Phractocephalus hemioliopterus, was carried out in the region of the middle Xingu River in the eastern Amazon basin. The fish were sampled quarterly from September 2012 to January 2014 using gillnets and long lines. The sex ratio was balanced, and while males and females were similar in standard length, the females were heavier than the males, on average. The males presented negative allometric growth, and the females, isometric growth. The estimated size at first maturity was 77.8 cm. The variation in the gonadosomatic index and the greater frequencies of mature specimens indicated a reproductive peak at the beginning of the high-water (flood) period. As P. hemioliopterus is an important commercial fish, our findings will contribute to the future development of effective conservation and management strategies, such as minimum catch size and a close season that is appropriate for the region. These data will also provide important insights for the evaluation of potential impacts on the biology of this fish resulting from the construction of Belo Monte dam. FREITAS, T. M. S; MONTAG, L. F.

We assessed the flood pulse effect on the diet composition, trophic niche breadth, and the amount of food intake of two Amazonian auchenipterids with different feeding strategies. Sampling was carried out quarterly (from April/2012 to January/2014) on the middle Xingu River, using gillnets. We measured specimens for standard length and total weight. The specimens' stomachs were removed, weighed, and had their contents identified. We analyzed 360 stomachs of Auchenipterus nuchalis and 584 of Tocantinsia piresi. The diet of A. nuchalis was mainly composed of aquatic insects and crustaceans, while T. piresi fed on fruits and seeds. The diet composition of both species varied seasonally, but only T. piresi changed its trophic niche breadth in response to hydrological changes, becoming more specialist during the higher water periods (filling and flood). Both species also showed differences in their amount of food intake between hydrological periods, with A. nuchalis feeding more intensely in lower water periods (ebb and dry), while T. piresi in the higher water periods. We evidenced different responses to the hydrological periods for the related species. We emphasize that studies considering the relationship between flood pulse and feeding ecology of the organisms are essential to understanding river floodplain systems' dynamics.

Os campos alagados ou savanas da ilha do Marajó é uma área disjunta do bioma Cerrado na Amazônia, e é considerada de grande importância para planos de manejo, conservação e preservação ambiental. A fim de ampliar o conhecimento ictiofaunístico da região, o presente estudo reuniu informações coletadas em campo, compiladas da literatura e selecionadas de coleções ictiológicas sobre a fauna de peixes da eco-região savana do Marajó. As coletas de campo ocorreram entre os anos de 2003 e 2005, e apresentaram como métodos a rede de mão, rede de arrasto, rede de tapagem e captura manual por técnica de mergulho, sendo que durante esse período foram amostrados os municípios de Ponta de Pedras, Chaves e Muaná. Além desses, outros quatro municípios também foram abordadas em estudos pretéritos. A eficiência desse inventário biológico foi avaliada pelos métodos de acumulação de espécies (rarefação) e pela estimativa de riqueza Bootstrap. Nestes três locais foram coligidas 146 espécies, sendo que destas, 89 espécies (60%) e oito famílias da classe Actinopterygii foram registradas como novas ocorrências para os campos do Marajó. Com o incremento das coletas nos três municípios, o total de espécies para os campos da ilha é de 254 espécies. Desse total, 44 espécies (17%) são alvos da pesca comercial para fins de alimentação e 46 espécies (18%) são capturadas na pesca ornamental. Sendo assim, inventários biológicos realizados em locais de grande importância ambiental como ou campos alagados da Ilha do Marajó são imprescindíveis, pois sem esta documentação, qualquer avaliação de biodiversidade, delimitação de áreas de endemismo e distribuição geográfica para execução de medidas conservacionistas fica prejudicada. Torna-se necessário, portanto, não apenas criar condições para proteger a fauna, mas para torná-la melhor conhecida através da criação de mecanismos de apoio a projetos de inventariamento e estudos de taxonomia e sistemática. The flooded areas or savannas of the Marajó island is a fraction of the "Cerrado" biome in the Amazonian, and it is considered of a great importance to management plans, conservation and environmental preservation. In order to increase the knowledge of ichthyofauna from this region, the present study united information collected in other past campaigns, compiled from literature and selected from ichthyological collections on the fauna of the eco-region of Marajó's savanna. The field sampling occurred between the years of 2003 and 2005, and was applied the hand net, trawl net, gillnets, blockage and capture by free diving technique, which during this period were sampled the municipalities Ponta de Pedras, Chaves and Muaná. Besides these, four municipalities had also been included in past studies. The efficiency of this biological inventory was evaluated by species accumulation method (rarefaction) and the richness estimator Bootstrap. In these three places were collected 146 species, which 89 species (60%) and eight families of Actinopterygii were included as new records for the island of Marajó. With the increase of collections in the municipalities of Ponta de Pedras, Chaves and Muaná, the total species of the island is 254 species. Of these, 44 species (17%) are targets of commercial fishing for food and 46 species (18%) are caught to ornamental business. Thus, biological inventories realized at places with a great environmental importance as the savannas or flooded areas of the Marajó Island are essential, because without this documentation, any measurement of biodiversity, delimitation of endemism areas and geographic distribution of species for implementation of conservation plans would be damaged. Therefore, it is necessary not only create conditions to protect wildlife, but to make it better known through mechanisms to financing inventory projects and taxonomy and systematic studies.
