This resource contains a check list from the benthonic macroinvertebrate community sampled biannually from 1999 to 2010 in eight natural lakes from the middle Doce river lake system, and eight rivers segments in the Piracicaba River basin (sub-basin of Doce river), Minas Gerais State, Brazil.Sampling Description
Study Extent
From 1999 to 2010, eight rivers segments (Caraça, Barão de Cocais, Santa Bárbara, Peixe, Severo, Piracicaba, Ipanema, Doce) and eight lakes (Dom Helvécio, Gambazinho, and Carioca, Amarela, Águas Claras, Barra, Jacaré and Palmeirinha) were sampled in the dry and rainy season.Sampling
During the periods of drought (July or August) and rain (January or February) of each year water samples were taken from rivers and lakes and collections of benthic fauna. For each lake two or more sampling stations were determined in the coastal region, to ensure that spatial heterogeneity was considered. In the rivers, a single sampling station was determined in the left margin of each environment.Method steps
- For each lake two or more sampling stations were determined in the coastal region, to ensure that spatial heterogeneity was considered. In the rivers, a single sampling station was determined in the left margin of each environment. Samples were collected with a kick net packed in plastic bags, fixed with 10 ml of 40% formaldehyde solution, labeled and stored in polystyrene boxes. In the laboratory the collected material was washed, and the organisms retained in descending mesh screens (meshes of 2, 1, 0.5 and 0.250 mm). The organisms were screened using a stereoscopic microscope. Taxonomic identifications were made whenever possible up to the level of family, gender and / or species, based on the following literatures: Wiggins (1977), McCafferty (1981), Merrit & Cummins (1984), Dominguez et al. (1992) and Nieser & Melo (1997), Costa (1997) and Mugnai (2010).
Taxonomic Coverages
Specimens are identified at the lowest possible taxonomic level as possible, mostly at family levels. Some taxa were identified until genus or species level.
