新疆塘巴湖水库底栖动物生态学研究

2008年7月(平水期)、10月(枯水期)和2009年5月(丰水期)对新疆塘巴湖水库底栖动物群落进行了调查.共采集到底栖动物7种,主要属于摇蚊类和颤蚓类,其中以羽摇蚊群为优势种.各期底栖动物现存量存在显著差异(P<0.01),以平水期为最大,密度和生物量分别为280 ind/m2±1.12 ind/m2和0.83 g/m2±0.03 g/m2.不同种类的底栖动物密度在各采样期亦差异显著(P<0.01).相似性指数显示平水期和枯水期底栖动物群落结构中等相似.Shannon-Wiener生物多样性指数表明塘巴湖水库水体达中度污染.     

淮河流域板桥水库大型底栖动物群落结构及水质生物学评价

为了解板桥水库大型底栖动物群落结构动态特征并对其水质进行生物学评价,在该水库设置15个采样点,于2014年1—11月按季节进行调查.结果表明: 在板桥水库采集到大型底栖动物17种,隶属于3门4纲5科,其中摇蚊幼虫8种、寡毛类4种、软体动物5种.铜锈环棱螺、河蚬、苏氏尾鳃蚓、粗腹摇蚊和雕翅摇蚊为现阶段板桥水库的重要物种.大型底栖动物密度、生物量和多样性指数存在空间和时间差异性.ANOSIM分析显示,大型底栖动物群落结构在不同区域和季节间均存在显著差异,其主要贡献物种为雕翅摇蚊、粗腹摇蚊和苏氏尾鳃蚓.经丰度 生物量比较曲线(ABC曲线)分析,板桥水库大型底栖动物群落稳定,结合物种多样性指数、生物学污染指数(BPI)和Hilsenhoff生物指数(BI)评价结果,板桥水库的水质处于轻度污染水平.     

三峡成库后香溪河库湾底栖动物群落演变及库湾纵向分区格局动态

水库生态系统演替是水库生态学研究及水库管理过程中都比较关注的问题。三峡水库自2003年6月成库以来,有关水库生态系统演替的研究却鲜见报道。以三峡水库香溪河库湾底栖动物为研究对象,分析了自2003年8月—2010年7月3个不同蓄水阶段底栖动物群落的演变状况,并对库湾纵向分区格局的动态变化进行了探讨。结果表明,水库蓄水后,摇蚊科和颤蚓科成为第一批定殖者,并以摇蚊科为主;随后,颤蚓科中的霍甫水丝蚓逐渐成为优势类群;直到2004年4月仙女虫科的肥满仙女虫与霍甫水丝蚓共同主导群落。一期蓄水后约1a,底栖动物密度和物种数呈现出明显的增长趋势,空间上呈现出"中间高、两头低"的格局。库湾总体密度于2006年4月达到最高值,高达24146个/m2。二期蓄水导致底栖动物总密度显著降低,而三期蓄水后则变化相对较小。随着时间的增长,库湾底栖动物偶见种出现的频率逐渐降低,群落逐渐趋于稳定。基于TWINSPAN(two-way indicator species analysis)的分析,一期蓄水后期,香溪河库湾纵向上底栖动物群落结构呈现出稳定的分区格局,库湾中部区域呈现出相同的群落类型,无季节变化;而自二期蓄水开始,库湾纵向上大部分样点的群落类型发生改变,表明二期蓄水的干扰较强;之后呈现出季节性波动,此种格局与水位的季节波动相关联,表明三峡水库底栖动物逐渐适应水库周期性的调度,群落结构呈现稳定的季节性周期波动。     

滆湖底栖动物群落的时空变化及水质生物学评价

2009年5月-2010年2月对滆湖底栖动物群落进行了调查,并根据底栖动物群落结构对水质进行了生物学评价。结果表明:采集到底栖动物共35种,隶属于3门25属;优势种类为中国长足摇蚊(Tanypus chinensis)、霍甫水丝蚓(Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri)、苏氏尾鳃蚓(Branchiura sowerbyi)、克拉泊水丝蚓(L.claparedeianus)、中华河蚓(Rhyacodrilussinicus);滆湖底栖动物的年均密度为374.1ind·m-2,寡毛类对密度的贡献最大,占年均密度的77.4%,最大密度出现在夏季,春季最低,St14年均密度高于其他站点;滆湖底栖动物的年均生物量为17.78g·m-2,软体动物对生物量的贡献最大,占年均生物量的97.4%,夏季生物量最大,冬季最低,St14年均生物量明显高于其他各个站点;底栖动物的密度和生物量随季节变化明显,密度的季节变化表现为夏季>秋季>春季>冬季,生物量变化表现为夏季>春季>秋季>冬季;Shannon-Wiener多样性指数值(H’)、Margalef多样性指数值(D)、Pielou均匀度指数值(J)和BI指数值表明滆湖水体处于中度到重度污染状态。     

浙江分水江水库大型底栖动物群落结构及水质评价

2008年11月-2009年10月,在浙江桐庐分水江水库设置7个站点对大型底栖动物进行逐月调查.结果表明:调查共采集到37种底栖动物,主要由寡毛纲和摇蚊科物种组成.春、夏、秋季优势种均为霍甫水丝蚓,冬季优势种为羽摇蚊.直接收集者在物种数量、密度和生物量上均占绝对优势.群落年均密度和年均生物量分别为(488.0±48.8) ind·m-2和(1.86±0.49) g·m-2.底栖动物密度在站点间无明显差异但存在显著的季节变化,呈现春季＞夏季＞冬季＞秋季的趋势,生物量在站点、季节间均无显著差异.水温和水深是影响底栖动物时空分布的主要因子.Shannon多样性指数和Goodnight-Whitley指数不适合用于该水库的水质评价,其他指数综合显示分水江水库属于轻度污染.     

香溪河流域梯级水库大型底栖动物群落变化及其与环境的关系

分别于2005年10月和2011年10月对香溪河流域3个梯级水库的大型底栖动物群落进行了调查,探讨了大型底栖动物群落变化及其与环境的关系.结果表明:与2005年相比,2011年古洞口一级水库仍以寡毛类占优势,大型底栖动物总密度升高;古洞口二级水库中,摇蚊的优势度降低,前突摇蚊相对丰度由94.5％降低至35.5％,霍甫水丝蚓的相对丰度升至36.0％,总密度增加;香溪河库湾大型底栖动物群落发生很大变化,前突摇蚊取代颤蚓科种类成为绝对优势类群,相对丰度达到89.0％,而总密度降低,三峡水库水位剧烈波动对这一变化有推动作用.各水库大型底栖动物群落与环境因子的典型对应分析(CCA)结果表明,浊度较大的水体,前突摇蚊容易占优势,而颤蚓科的霍甫水丝蚓和正颤蚓则在水柱稳定性较高、底层水温较低的水体中更易占优势.     

温榆河大型底栖动物季节分布特征的研究

为了研究温榆河底栖动物季节变化情况,于2011年对温榆河大型底栖动物进行了季节采样,并采用物种优势度指数、Shannon-Wiener指数、Margalef指数、Pielou指数4个指标探求大型底栖动物季节分布特征。结果表明:温榆河共检出底栖动物64种,春季、夏季和秋季均有3种优势物种,其中,夏、秋两季的优势物种均为霍甫水丝蚓(Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri)、猛摇蚊(Chironomus acerbiphilus)和苏氏尾鳃蚓(Branchiura Sowerbyias)。生物多样性指数基本以秋季为最大值,秋季是评价研究区底栖动物群落的最佳季节。Pearson相关分析表明水温对春季生物多样性指数的影响最为显著,夏季和冬季均只有Pielou指数与其中的一个水质指标呈显著正相关关系。     

三峡水库底栖动物群落结构特征及其与蓄水前资料的比较

为了解三峡水库在蓄水后底栖动物的群落结构特征, 探索水文情势改变对底栖动物群落结构的影响,于2012 年8 月、11 月及2013 年4 月对三峡水库的秭归、巫山、云阳、忠县和木洞五个断面底栖动物的群落结构进行了调查分析。结果表明: (1)共记录底栖动物43 个属种, 木洞种类最多(29 种), 秭归最少(12 种)。优势种为多足摇蚊(Polypedilum sp.)、前突摇蚊(Procladius sp.)、肥满仙女虫(Nais inflata)、霍甫水丝蚓(Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri)和一种钩虾(Gammaridae);(2)在空间分布上, 密度以木洞最高(81802740) ind./m2,忠县最低(11642) ind./m2;生物量以木洞最高(8.663.65) g/m2, 云阳最低(0.170.06) g/m2;(3)在季节动态上,密度以秋季最高(31401450) ind./m2, 夏季最低(11537) ind./m2;生物量则以春季最高(3.832.11) g/m2, 夏季最低(0.650.46) g/m2;(4)底栖动物密度和生物量随着水深的增加呈下降趋势, 在水深小于20 m 的浅水区递减率最大;(5)丰度/生物量比较曲线(ABC 曲线)分析显示, 巫山属于中等干扰条件下的群落结构(W=-0.003), 而木洞属于严重干扰条件下的群落结构(W=-0.101);(6)与建坝前相比, 三峡水库底栖动物密度和生物量趋于减少。流速减缓、水深增加、水位波幅加大和沉积物中营养盐的升高可能是造成三峡水库底栖动物群落结构改变的主要因素。       

永定河流域大型底栖动物功能摄食类群时空分布及生态评价

2017年春季(4月)、夏季(7月)、秋季(11月)对永定河流域23个样点的大型底栖动物、水环境和水文因子进行了野外调查,分析了永定河流域大型底栖动物功能摄食类群的群落组成与时空分布特征及其对河流生境变化的响应情况。永定河流域3个季节共采集到大型底栖动物78种,隶属3门6纲39科,其中,春季52种、夏季50种、秋季53种,功能摄食类群以收集者占绝对优势,其次为捕食者,刮食者、滤食者、撕食者所占比例极低。3个季节优势种均属于收集者类群,春季优势种为直突摇蚊属、流水长跗摇蚊属、环足摇蚊属,夏季优势种为雕翅摇蚊属,秋季优势种为多足摇蚊属、摇蚊属、直突摇蚊属。冗余分析结果表明: 水温、流速、盐度以及总磷是影响春季大型底栖动物功能摄食类群的主要影响因子;总磷、溶解氧、电导率以及流量是夏季大型底栖动物功能摄食类群的主要影响因子;总磷和溶解氧是影响秋季大型底栖动物功能摄食类群的主要影响因子;总磷在春、夏、秋季均与收集者类群表现出正相关性,表明永定河流域大型底栖动物功能摄食类群受到了水质污染的影响。基于功能摄食类群参数的评价表明:1)物质循环方面,妫水河初级生产力显著高于其他区域,秋季大于其他季节;洋河次级生产力和分解能力显著高于其他区域,春季大于其他季节,但洋河自养/异养作用显著低于其他区域,春季小于其他季节;2)纵向输入能力方面,桑干河显著高于其他区域,秋季大于其他季节;3)沿岸物质的输入方面,妫水河显著高于其他区域,夏季大于其他季节。     

永定河流域大型底栖动物群落分布格局及其影响因子

人类干扰造成了全球河流生态系统的普遍退化。流域尺度的水生生物分布特征及其影响因素研究对于河流生态系统的保护与恢复具有重要意义。本研究以永定河流域大型底栖动物群落为研究对象,分别于2017年春季(3月)、夏季(7月)、秋季(11月)开展全流域尺度的大型底栖动物调查。研究表明: 永定河流域以摇蚊科为主,优势类群包括直突摇蚊属、摇蚊属、雕翅摇蚊属以及多足摇蚊属。聚类分析表明,大型底栖动物群落结构存在显著的空间差异性,按照群落相似性可分为2组: 组1主要包含桑干河和东洋河水系,以直突摇蚊为主要优势种;组2主要包含洋河、妫水河以及永定河干流部分河段,以雕翅摇蚊为主要优势种。单因素方差分析表明,组2生物量、Shannon指数、Margalef指数、Pielou均匀度指数以及物种丰富度均显著高于组1,指示了该区域内更好的生态状况。大型底栖动物的季节差异显著,夏季的密度、生物量和各多样性指数均显著低于春季和秋季。典范对应分析显示,影响永定河大型底栖动物空间分布的环境因子主要包括水温、铵氮、pH、溶解氧和总磷。从水文因子的角度,流量和流速与主要生物参数存在显著相关性。组2中流速和流量与大型底栖动物密度和EPT%存在显著的正相关关系,表明急流生境有利于EPT(蜉蝣目、襀翅目、毛翅目)敏感类群的生存;但流量和流速与多样性指数呈负相关关系,表明过高流量和流速的生境条件不利于大型底栖动物多样性的维持。总之,水环境因子、水文因子都显示出了对大型底栖动物群落结构和多样性特征的影响,表明永定河流域生态系统受到多类型人为活动的影响。减少水质污染、适度恢复部分河段的流量是永定河流域生态系统修复的重要环节。     

The population structure of stone centipedes (Lithobiomorpha) on a landscape profile in the Transural forest-steppe

The biotopic distribution, abundance, spatial and sex-age structures of stone centipede population are described on a landscape profile in the Transural steppe-forest zone. Two species, Lithobius curtipes and Lamyctes emarginatus, were found, the former species inhabiting most of the communities, and the latter, only periodically flooded sites. The density of centipedes varied from 2.4 to 4.0 ind./m² in the steppe and from 4.8 to 52.8 ind./m² in the forest communities. In mid-summer, juveniles comprised no less than 50% of the population, the epimorph stages being the most abundant. The populations of L. curtipes were characterized by a mosaic distribution and prevalence of males over females.     

长江口崇明东滩盐沼湿地围堤工程对底栖动物群落的影响

长江口崇明东滩盐沼湿地围堤工程是以清除入侵植物互花米草为目的而进行的生态修复工程。由于大型底栖动物可作为重要的环境指示生物,分析比较了围堤前后围堤工程内和工程外大型底栖动物群落结构及多样性的变化。结果表明,在2013年围堤工程前和2016年围堤工程后两次调查共采集到大型底栖动物29种,分别隶属于无针纲、多毛纲、腹足纲、双壳纲、甲壳纲和昆虫纲。在2013和2016年围堤外光滩生境分别采集到底栖动物21种和27种,并且所有样线都表现出物种数量增加或持平;然而在围堤内区域,两条全封闭样线(样线2和样线3)由围堤前的12种减少到围堤后的6种,而在保留进出水口的半封闭样线1围堤内由围堤前7种增加到围堤后12种。底栖动物平均密度在半封闭样线1围堤内由围堤前的(75±0)个/m^2增加到围堤后的(288±111)个/m^2(P=0.091),在全封闭的样线2(2013:(120±17)个/m^2;2016:(7±7)个/m^2)和样线3(2013:(359±20)个/m^2;2016:(93±93)个/m^2)围堤内都表现出围堤前显著高于围堤后(P<0.05);围堤外光滩区域所有样线虽然没有显著性差异,但是都表现出围堤后密度增加,总平均密度由围堤前的(410±83)个/m^2增加到2016年的(1184±393)个/m^2(P=0.072)。因此,在长江口盐沼湿地进行互花米草生态治理的围堤工程,保留进出水口保持围堤区域与外界自然水域的连通性对围堤内底栖动物结构及多样性有积极作用,而围堤外底栖动物结构及多样性在所有样点均处上升趋势。围堤工程主要对软体动物和多毛类影响较大,而同时这些物种还是鸟类或者鱼类的重要食物资源,从而对鸟类和鱼类等次级消费者造成影响。从底栖动物群落变化及其生境来看,建议应该采取保留进出水口的围堤方式,维持潮水的出入,恢复围堤内与围堤外的生境连通性。     

Pelagic larvae of benthic invertebrates of the Vostok Bay,peter the great bay,Sea of Japan: Composition,phenology, and population dynamics

For the first time, year round and long-term seasonal research on the composition, phenology, and population dynamics of pelagic larvae of bottom invertebrates were conducted in the Vostok Bay of the Sea of Japan. Larvae of 98 taxa of various ranks were found. The larvae of bivalves and polychaetes were the most diverse. The larvae of bottom invertebrates occurred in plankton year-round. Their density was at its minimum in January (less than 100 ind./m³), and its maximum from June to November (more than 1000 ind./m³). The larvae of polychaetes dominated in the autumn and winter seasons, whereas bivalve and gastropod larvae dominated in the spring and summer seasons. It was shown that the proportion of pollution tolerant meroplankton larvae of the Polydora and Pseudopolydora genera was high in the Vostok Bay, and could indirectly indicate increasing anthropogenic pressure in the area.     

The drift of zooplankton and microzoobenthos in the river Strandaelva,western Norway

The drift of zooplankton (rotifers, cladocerans, cyclopoid copepods) and microscopical zoobenthos (mainly bdelloid rotifers and small chironomid larvae) was investigated by filtering samples of river water. The number of drifting benthic rotifers varied between 1 000 and 6 000 ind. m^–3 in the lake inlet, and between 30 and 500 ind. m^–3 in the lake outlet, without any seasonal trend. The number of drifting insect larvae was approx. equal in the lake inlet and outlet, with a maximum in summer (250–300 ind. m^–3) and minimum in winter (ca. 10 ind. m^–3). Increasing water flow resulted in an increasing number of drifting zoobenthos. Downstream from the lake, the number of drifting benthic rotifers was increasing from approx. 300 ind. m^–3 in the outlet to 6 500 ind. m^–3 3.4 km downstream, while the number of insect larvae was ca. 100 ind. m^–3 in the outlet and leveled off at approx. 300 ind. m^–3 after 200 m. The number of drifting zooplankton in the lake outlet varied between 20 and 2 000 ind. m^–3 for crustaceans, and between 300 and 20 000 ind. m^–3 for rotifers, both with a maximum in late summer/autumn and a minimum in winter. The number of drifting zooplankton decreased by some 45% in the first 200 m from the lake outlet, but some zooplankton was still found in the drift 3.4 km downstream. The largest species was removed first from the drift. The diurnal variation in the number of drifting zooplankton in lake outlets appear to be related to the vertical migration in the lake, i.e. the largest number drifting when most animals are in the upper water layers.Contribution from the Voss Project, University of OsloContribution from the Voss Project, University of Oslo     

Effects of Submerged Aquatic Vegetation on Macrozoobenthos in a Coastal Lagoon of the Southwestern Atlantic

The freshwater‐dominated part of Rocha coastal lagoon recently experienced sudden colonization by submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV). Macrophytes may be beneficial or detrimental for the zoobenthos, and both assemblages may in turn affect the food availability for birds and fishes. With the aim of evaluating the effect of SAV on water conditions and on the composition, abundance and diversity of macrozoobenthos, vegetated areas (V, up to 500 g DW m^–2) were compared with vegetation‐free areas (N). The benthic abundance was higher in V (up to 5000 ind m^–2) than in N (up to 2200 ind m^–2). Species richness and abundance of amphipods, gastropods and chironomids were also higher at V compared with N. Conversely, the abundance of Tanais stanfordi (Crustacea), Erodona mactroides (Bivalvia) and Laeonereis culveri (Polychaeta), and the Shannon diversity were higher at N.

Meso- and macrozooplankton communities in the Weddell Sea,Antarctica

Summary The present paper describes composition and abundance of meso- and macrozooplankton in the epipelagic zone of the Weddell Sea and gives a systematic review of encountered species regarding results of earlier expeditions. Material was sampled from 6 February to 10 March 1983 from RV Polarstern with a RMT 1+8 m (320 and 4500 m mesh size). In agreement with topography and water mass distribution three distinct communities were defined, clearly separated by cluster analysis: The Southern Shelf Community has lowest abundances (approx. 9000 ind./1000 m³). Euphausia crystallorophias and Metridia gerlachei are predominating. Compared with the low overall abundance the number of regularly occurring species is high (55) due to many neritic forms. Herbivores and omnivores are dominating (58% and 35%). The North-eastern Shelf Community has highest abundances (about 31 000 ind./1000 m³). It is predominated by copepodites I–III of Calanus propinquus and Calanoides acutus (61%). The faunal composition is characterized by both oceanic and neritic species (64). Fine-filter feeders are prevailing (65%). The Oceanic Community has a mean abundance of approximately 23 000 ind./1000 m³, consisting of 61 species. Dominances are not as pronounced as in the shelf communities. Apart from abundant species like Calanus propinquus, Calanoides acutus, Metridia gerlachei, Oithona spp. and Oncaea spp. many typical inhabitants of the Eastwind Drift are encountered. All feeding types have about the same importance in the Oceanic Community.     

Distribution, species composition, and dynamics of echinoderm larvae in an area of the Tumen River Estuary and of the Far East State Marine Reserve

Species composition, distribution, and density dynamics of echinoderm larvae were determined based on four samples taken at 28 stations in the summer-autumn season of 1997 in an area adjacent to the Tumen River Estuary and to the Far East State Marine Reserve. Larvae of nine species were recorded. The larvae ofOphiura sarsi (up to 9600 ind./m³) and ofEchinocardium cordatum (2058 ind./m³) were dominant in terms of density. The echinoderm larvae mostly appeared in the upper water layer (0–15 m). The study area can be divided into two sites based on the density and species composition of echinoderm larvae: the first to the south of Furugel'ma Island, where the density and species number were low, and the second to the north of Furugel'ma Island, where these parameters had higher values.     

Seasonal density dynamics and distribution of brachyuran crab larvae (Decapoda: Brachyura) in Amursky and Ussuriysky bays, Sea of Japan

The species composition, period of occurrence, density, and distribution of brachyuran crab larvae (Decapoda: Brachyura) in the Amursky and Ussuriysky bays (Sea of Japan) were studied in May–October 2007 and 2008. The larvae of this group were not numerous, with peak densities occurring in July at maximum water temperatures. The average brachyuran larvae density was up to 126.9 ind./m³ in Ussuriysky Bay and 68 ind./m³ in Amursky Bay; the contribution of Brachyura to all decapod larvae reached 80–90%. In Amursky Bay, the highest density of brachyuran larvae (up to 584 ind./m³) was observed along the western coast over depths to 20 m; in Ussuriysky Bay, the larval density was highest (up to 1817 ind./m³) in the shallowwater northern part and progressively decreased with depth. Larvae of 18 brachyuran species were found in plankton samples. In Amursky Bay, intertidal crab larvae of the genus Hemigrapsus dominated, Eriocheir japonica larvae were fairly numerous. Larvae of the pea crabs Pinnixa rathbuni and Tritodynamia rathbunae and zoeae of the bigtooth rock crab Glebocarcinus amphioetus were predominant in Ussuriysky Bay.     

Monthly change of community structure of zoobenthos in Xiangxi Bay after impoundment of the Three Gorges Teservoir, China

Xiangxi Bay, a typical bay of the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) in China, was formed in June 2003 after the impoundment of the TGR. We investigated the community structure of zoobenthos in Xiangxi Bay from August 2003 to August 2004. Benthic abundance and biomass were calculated per unit area of sediment. A total of 26 taxa were identified. They included two families of Lamellibranchia (7.7% of the total taxa number), two families of Oligochaeta (50%), Chironomidae (38.5%), and one other animal (3.8%). The average density and biomass were 276 ind./m² and 0.301 g/m², respectively. Oligochaetes and chironomids constituted the major groups, and Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri, Procladius sp., Branchiura sowerbyi, Tubificidae sp1. and Polypedilum scalaenum group sp. were the common taxa in this reservoir system. Among them, L. hoffmeisteri and Procladius sp. were the dominant species, and contributed 37.0% and 28.3% of the total density, respectively. The standing crop of zoobenthos in Xiangxi Bay was relative low, compared with other similar reservoirs. Our studies demonstrate that the standing crop increased gradually with time. The total density and biomass in August 2004 were 8.8 and 14.3 times those of the initial impoundment, separately. Oligochaetes did not become the sole dominant group, indicating that the sediment loading in Xiangxi Bay may be not serious. __________ Translated from Acta Hydrobiologica Sinica, 2006, 30(1): 64–69 [译自: 水生生物学报]
