Abstract (en):
We present a preliminary list of the immature Ephemeroptera genera for Tolima region. These results come from the studies made in ten areas (Cajamarca, Chaparral, Coello, Cunday, Dolores, Ibagué, Prado, Rio Blanco, Rovira and Villa Rica) between 2002 and 2008. A total of 10,235 identified organisms are listed here, all of which reside in the âColección Zoológica de la Universidad del Tolima, Sección Macroinvertebrados Acuáticos (CZUT-MA)â. Seven families and 41 genera are registered for Tolima region, being the 78 % and 95 % of the total families and genera registered for Colombia. The most widely distributed family of the order was Baetidae, and the least was Euthyplociidae. Baetodes, Thraulodes, and Leptohyphes had the best distribution inside the region, also being the most abundant ones. These results, allow us to deduce that Tolima region holds an immense Ephemeroptera diversity, which makes it necessary to perform more studies in order to complete the limited taxonomic, ecological and applied knowledge of the order we have today.
Abstract (es):
Se presenta el listado preliminar de géneros del orden Ephemeroptera en el departamento del Tolima, basado en ninfas. Estos resultados provienen del estudio de diez municipios del departamento (Cajamarca, Chaparral, Coello, Cunday, Dolores, Ibagué, Prado, Río Blanco, Rovira y Villa Rica) entre el 2002 y 2008. Un total de 10235 organismos determinados se listan en este trabajo, los cuales reposan en la Colección Zoológica de la Universidad del Tolima, Sección Macroinvertebrados Acuáticos (CZUT-MA). Para el departamento del Tolima se registran siete familias y 41 géneros, representando el 78% y 95% del total registrado para Colombia, respectivamente. La familia más ampliamente distribuida fue Baetidae, y la de menor distribución fue Euthyplociidae. Los géneros más ampliamente distribuidos fueron Baetodes, Thraulodes, y Leptohyphes, los cuales también se caracterizan por ser los más abundantes. Los resultados de este estudio dejan evidenciar que el Tolima alberga una inmensa diversidad del orden Ephemeroptera, por lo que se hace necesario un mayor estudio en la zona con el fin de ampliar el conocimiento taxonómico, ecológico y aplicado a la capacidad bioindicadora de este orden.
