Abstract

Odonata are insects with great ability to fly during adult, inhabiting places with the presence of water such as lakes and rivers or even small pool. During the larval stage, these organisms inhabit the aquatic environment, making up the important group of aquatic insects. The knowledge of the composition and richness of these insects is of fundamental importance for us to understand how they organize themselves in a community. The aim of this study was to analyze whether seasonality influences Odonata larvae assemblages. The work was carried out in the Piaba and Viveiro lakes of the Zoobotanic Park of the Federal University of Acre. Samples were taken in winter 2015 and summer 2016. Biological samples were identified down to the genus level. In this study we confirm the hypothesis of the influence of seasonality on the odonata fauna and the importance of riparian vegetation for the preservation of aquatic species in urban areas.
