Estuaries are surrounding of Transistion enter and the continent and the ocean, where rivers find the sea, resulting in the measurable dilution of the salty water. This study was carried through in order to determine the composition and distribution of eggs and larval periods of training of fish (ichthyoplankton) of the estuaries of the rivers Curuçá and Muriá, located in the northeast state of Pará (Br). For this semimonthly collections in receding tides diurne and of quadrature from September of 2003 until July of 2004 had been carried through. They had been daily pay established four stations to the long one of the estuary of the two rivers. They had been carried through measured of condutivity, pH, temperature and oxygen dissolved and carried through samples to a meter of depth that had been made with a net with mesh of 500μm and 50 cm of mouth opening, in which was connected a fluxgate Samples had been conserved with formol 4%. They had been registered 1,326 larvae, being that of these, 451 had been showed in the river Muriá and 875 larvae in the Curuçá river. The identified larvae of fish belong to the 11 families (Engraulidae, Clupeidae, Gobiidae, Scianidae, Carangidae, Pleuronectidae, Tetraodontidae, Beloniidae, Soleidae, Achiriidae and Scorpaenidae). The biggest densities had been registered in the months of July, January and March. It did not have a space standard of distribution of the larvae with the ambiental variables. The estuary of the city of Curuçá was represented mainly by clupeiformes (family Engraulidae and Clupeidae), that they play important role in the trophic net of this ecosystem as well as excellent paper in the local feeding.

The Brazilian North Coast is one of the most productive regions of Brazil and the Amazon River as the main source of nutrients, which explains the great potential for primary production in the region. The main purpose of this study was to determine the composition and nycthemeral variation of ictioplâncton the estuary of the Port of Santana, state of Amapá, Brazil. The water sample was collected to measure subsurface following parameters: electrical conductivity, pH, salinity, turbidity, dissolved oxygen and temperature. The samples were taken, making two cycles of 24 hours in a season sets in the fourth moon rising (Quadrature) and a full moon (Syzygy). The collection of samples was done with a network of plankton, type Bongo with 0,60 m of opening of mouth, 1,50 m in length and aperture of 500 μm. To determine the volume of water was filtered into the network combined with a mechanical flowmeter, the sample was collected and packaged in pots with formalin fixed at 4%. transported to the Laboratory of Aquatic Ecology and Tropical Aquaculture - LECAT, Rural Federal University of the Amazon - where the UFRA ichthyoplankton was identified and quantified at the level of family. 2,776 larvae were quantified, these, 842 were sampled in the collection held in the tide of squaring (crescent moon) and 1,924 larvae in the Tide of sizígia (Full). The larvae of fish identified belonging to seven families (Engraulidae, Gobiidae, Sciaenidae, Tetraodontidae, Eleotridae, Pristigasteridae Clupeidae). The families Clupeidae and Gobiidae occurred only in the tide of squaring, while the families and Pristigasteridae Tetraodontidae occurred only in the tide of sizígia. During the trip by squaring (Crescent Moon) was the most abundant family Engraulidae followed by Sciaenidae and Pristigasteridae. At stations where larvae occurred, the density ranged from 137 larvae/100m³ to 15:30 until 2,859 larvae/100m³ to collect from 12:30 pm for the time of sampling time there is a pattern of distribution of the fish larvae influenced by the period of collection (night and day), with the highest values occur during the day. The high number of larvae registered revealed that area of the estuary of the Amazon river is used as an area of breeding and nursery. There are no significant differences in the composition of ichthyoplankton by changes in the lunar phase.

Despite the ecological and economic importance larvae of shrimp, there is no knowledge on shrimp larvae in the Marapanim estuary (Pará, Brazil). With the aim of studying the species composition, abundance and spatial-temporal distribution of these larvae in the estuary in relation to season (dry, transition and rainy), estuary zone (1, 2 and 3), sampling site (A1, A2, A3, B1, B2 and B3) and profile (A and B), monthly collections were carried out between August 2006 and July 2007. Biological samples were obtained from two horizontal drags at each sampling site at 0.5 m from the surface of the water column with the aid of a conical plankton net (aperture = 0.5 m and mesh = 200 μm). Abiotic data were a lso gathered, such as temperature, salinity and pH of the water. A total of 4644 shrimp larvae from the infra-orders Penaeidea and Caridea were collected. Among the species and/or families encountered, the most abundant were Alpheus estuariensis (302.59 larvae/m3), Palaemonidae (97.05 larvae/m3) and elaphocaris stage of Sergestidae (90.47 larvae/m3), with A. estuariensis the most frequent (76.39%). Greater abundance, diversity and richness of the shrimp larvae occurred in the dry season. Cluster analysis of the monthly abundance of larvae led to the formation of three groups with 65% similarity, in which A. estuariensis was dominant and was the species that most contributed to the similarity in the groups. The main difference among groups was due to Sergestidae, Palaemonidae and Xiphopenaeus kroyeri larvae densities. Among the abiotic factors studied, the salinity was the factor that most influenced the spatial-temporal distribution of the shrimp larvae in the Marapanim estuary, important region for larval recruitment of shrimp species.

Distribuição espaço-temporal das larvas de peixe e sua relação à hidrodinâmica e à qualidade da água no entorno das ilhas do Combu e Murucutu, Belém - PA
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2010) WANDERLEY, Clarissa Maria da Silva; MENEZES, Maria Ozilea Bezerra; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4537440664948152; SARPEDONTI, Valérie; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2358097649881792
In order to compensate for the lack of information on fish larvae communities in the Amazonians region, this study aims to investigate the spatial and temporal variation of larval density, diversity in relation to taxa and development stages. Data collected were related to water quality and hydrodynamic features at sample stations. Samples were taken in October/2008, January, April and July/2009 according to the pluviometric index. Samplings occurred in the Guama and Benedito Rivers bordering the Combu and Murucutu Islands as well as in the Paciência Canal which separates the two islands. The larvae were captured towing a conical plankton net with 330 μm mesh size, 0.5 m of diameter and 2.5 m in length. In parallel surface water were taken, for water quality analysis, and data hydrodynamic. Data were registered included univariate (ANOVA) and multivariate (PCA; RDA) approaches. Larval community included 4.983individuals distributed among the Clupeidae, Engraulidae, Sciaenidae, Carangidae, Tetraodontidae and Hemiramphidae families. The families Clupeidae and Engraulidae dominated, followed by the Sciaenidae family. The peak of larvae as well as the highest density of preflexion stage was registered in October/2008, during dry season pointing at a major spawning event. The Paciência Canal presented a higher larval abundance on its northern side, probably in relation to the strong water flow from the Guamá River. Moreover, the Paciência Canal presented differentiated larval densities for presenting more favorable environmental characteristics. In the area east of the Guamá River larvae were also abundant probably represent a less agitated than the area west. In the East side of the Guamá River larvae were also abundant, probably due to its quieter water when compared to the West side that received the ebbing waters of the Paciência Canal. Among all the parameters taken into considerations, the hydrodynamic were the only ones who showed the best associations to the larval communities. Distribution of larvae at different development stages remained constant over time. Taxa distribution only presented different in October/2008. Diversity and larval density was considered low, which may be related to huge input of freshwater. Water quality was not considered as a limiting factor for fish larvae growth and survival. Water dynamic in the Paciência Canal indicated that there is a restriction in the transport of fish larvae between Guamá and Benedito Rivers.

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2009-08) ANUNCIAÇÃO, Erica Moema Silva da; SARPEDONTI, Valérie; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2358097649881792
This study aimed to provide information on the morphological description of the species and ontogenetic Plagioscion squamosissimus (Sciaenidae), Cynoscion acoupa (Sciaenidae), Colomesus pscitacus (Tetraodontidae) and Oligoplites palometa (Carangidae) from the northern region of Brazil. All individuals were analyzed for the integrity of their structures and subsequently identified. From the identification of each species, individuals were analyzed for their morphological, meristic, morphometric. To study the ontogenic were determined inflection points in the growth of structures, the development stages and their critical periods, then a PCA was performed for better visualization of the characters that best define the larval growth. The results indicated that the relative growth (depending on total length (TL) of the body parts studied followed negative allometry. The three stages of larval development defined depending on the ontogenic process differed between species in spite of their similarities in the chronology of the development body. So the initial development phase of the four species in F1 favors the anterior portion of the larvae while the back of the body showed the highest growth rate at the end of the larval stage. The two species of Sciaenidae Cynoscion acoupa and Plagioscion squamosissimus differ in the shape of the mouth and CT were observed when the first teeth, the differences also in the sequence of development of the fins, pigmentation in the presence and location of spines and body proportions. Colomesus pscitacus observed the occurrence of ossified teeth soon after hatching, this species occurs also the early appearance of the fins, pigmentation and maintaining body relation (characterizing the spherical shape of the body). Oligoplites palometa The species showed the pattern of development of the fins similar to those described for other species of this family which is associated as a standard characteristic for this family, as well as the presence of intense pigmentation and spines on opercular region and supra-occipital.

Spatio-temporal distribution of fish larvae in relation to ontogeny and water quality in the oligohaline zone of a North Brazilian estuary
(2013-09) SARPEDONTI, Valérie; ANUNCIAÇÃO, Erica Moema Silva da; BORDALO, Adriana Oliveira
Larval fish assemblage in Guajará Bay was studied through four quarterly field campaigns and discussed in relation to individuals' development stages and exposure to contaminants poured out by the Pará State Capital City, Belém. Larval densities were low and diversity extremely poor with a strong dominance of clupeids, engraulids and, to a lower extent, sciaenids. The main spawning season was registered at the onset of the rainy period. Pre-flexion and flexion clupeiforms remained in the farmost stations from the city while post-flexion larvae were found near urban activity centres. Unlikely, pre-flexion and flexion sciaenids were scattered along the city waterfront. Post-flexion larvae were rare; it is suggested that sciaenids use the bay as a transitory route between their spawning grounds and more distant nursery grounds. The waters around the city of Belém showed signs of contamination. However, based on the literature, Guajará Bay environmental quality at the time of the study was suitable for fish larvae life. Nitrate with pH best explained larval distribution.

Variação diária e caracterização morfológica das larvas de peixes do complexo estuarino do Rio Amazonas - PA
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2009) ZACARDI, Diego Maia; NAKAYAMA, Luiza; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3771896759209007
The great importance of fishery resource for Amazonia, together with the necessity of more detailed basic information on identification of fish larvae (captured in their natural environment) justify the development of this study, which has the aim of expanding the knowledge about ichthyoplankton, relating it to diel variation tendency and tides from the estuarine complex of Amazonas river, PA. The material was collected during diurnal and nocturnal periods, in the second semester of 2007, by the PIATAM mar II project, under the subarea 1 (estuary of Paracauari river) and subarea 2 (Guajara Bay) in the tide sizigia and quadrature, in horizontal trawls the water column surface cylindrical-conical plankton 300μm mesh. The samples were maintained in recipients containing 4% formalin. Hydrologic factors were obtained in situ by the Chemical Oceanography Group of the Museum of Paraense Emilio Goeld, and were sorted and identified through on morphological, morphometric and meristic characteristics based on the development regressive sequence technique and specialized bibliography. The main structures and characteristics of the initial phases of fishes were described and illustrated, facilitating future studies focusing ichthyoplankton of the region. Superficial temperature of the water, hydrogenionic potential and dissolved oxygen did not show significant differences in the areas studied. The values of salinity did not show significant differences in relation to seasons of sampling and tides, registering only horizontal variation with the gradual increase in direction of the mouth river with high (12) and minimum (0) values to subareas 1 and 2, respectively. The highest densities of eggs were registered in subarea 1 in comparison with subarea 2. Moreover, highest densities of eggs were observed during diurnal period (163, 29 eggs/100m³), while in subarea 2 they were observed during nocturnal period (19,70 eggs/100m³). Larvae were distributed in 22 taxa representing 13 families and 21 species. The predominant taxa were: P. flavipinnis (46,29%), R. amazonica (19,75%), Engraulidae (10,70%), P. squamosissimus (7,55%), A. lineatus (5,19%), O. saurus (3,30%) and Gobiosoma sp. (2,15%), with a relative high participation of Clupeiformes (76,75%). When considering the development stage, it was observed a higher abundance of pre-flexion larvae in both subareas, while the stages yolk-sac and pos-flexion were less observed. Nocturnal period showed the highest density of larvae and number of taxa, evidencing a possible nictemeral migration of the plankton. Only M. furnieri showed significantly higher abundances in diurnal samples. The great majority of taxa did not present significant differences between diurnal and nocturnal samples. Hence, the density of larvae and number of taxa differ between diurnal and nocturnal periods and between tides. As a consequence, the morphologic characteristic described in this study allow an adequate identification of larvae, amplifying the biologic knowledge of the estuarine species from Para coast, considering that this information is still scarce and there is a necessity of intensification in this kind of research. Moreover, the comprehension of the ecology of the organisms, especially the ones which have life cycles associated to estuaries and the variations in the transport of larvae between diurnal and nocturnal periods, as well as between tides. These are fundamental topics to improve the management and conservation of these renewable resources.
