Gutiérrez Gregoric Verónica Núñez Alejandra Rumi Biología Argentina Paraná River Uruguay River Paraguay River Freshwater gastropods The greatest floral and faunal biodiversity estimated from Argentina -not including molluscs - is found in threesubtropical forests belonging to the del Plata Basin, two of them at the northeastern part of Argentina (NEA). The aimof this study is to show new records as well as an update of the distribution of the freshwater Gastropoda species in themain NEA rivers: Iguazú, Paraná, Paraguay, and Uruguay. At NEA, 66 species belonging to 9 families are known fromliterature records. According to the preferences of habitats in this area littoral and bottom species, could be recognized.The former includes 33 species belonging to Ampullariidae, Ancylidae, Lymnaeidae, Physidae, and Planorbidae, andthe latter with 33 species of Lithoglyphidae, Cochliopidae, Thiaridae, and Chilinidae. In this paper, 30 species of 8families were recorded, 25 of them are littoral whereas only 5 species inhabiting the bottom were found, because ofthe high level of the rivers. Two new records were registered for the country, both belonging to Ancylidae: Gundlachiaticaga and the genus Laevapex. Thus, now there are 68 species at NEA. Twenty-three species increase the number oflocalities. Planorbidae was the family with more collected species (13). No Thiaridae species were found. 2006 artículo científico 0037-8607 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=52408903 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=524 Comunicaciones de la Sociedad Malacológica del Uruguay application/pdf Sociedad Malacológica del Uruguay Comunicaciones de la Sociedad Malacológica del Uruguay (Uruguay) Num.89 Vol.9 |
