Seaweed diversity associated with a Brazilian tropical rhodolith bed

Fuente: Redalyc · Ciencias Marinas

This study describes the predominantly tropical, subtidal seaweed populations growing on rhodoliths between 4 and 18 m depth in the southern part of Espírito Santo State (Brazil). Qualitative and quantitative sampling revealed species-rich algal communities, comprising 167 species. Three species of...

Se describen las poblaciones de las macroalgas submareales predominantemente tropicales que crecen sobre rodolitos entre 4 y 18 m de profundidad en la parte sur del estado de Espírito Santo (Brasil). Muestreos cualitativos y cuantitativos revelaron comunidades ricas en especies de algas, incluyendo 167 especies. Tres especies de rodofitas son nuevas adiciones a la flora marina de Brasil (Lithothamnion muelleri, Scinaia aborealis y Mesophyllum engelhartii). Las marcadas diferencias estacionales en la composición y abundancia de especies de algas carnosas se relacionaron con la inestabilidad causada por el disturbio de tormentas invernales sobre los mantos de rodolitos. En cuanto a la profundidad, la densidad de rodolitos parece ser un factor importante para la variación en la abundancia de algas carnosas. La comunidad de rodolitos está formada por al menos siete especies de algas coralinas no geniculadas. Se demostró que los mantos de rodolitos, en un área de 150 km2, proporcionan un hábitat importante para las comunidades bentónicas, manteniendo 25% de la riqueza de especies de macroalgas conocidas para la costa brasileña.
