description The freshwater snail Pomacea flagellata is native from Southeastern Mexico. Studies about this species are scarce and none has treated their reproduction. This snail has been exploited at Bacalar lagoon for many years, leading to a significant decrease in their abundance and currently, a permanent ban was proposed by the government. This work aimed to assess the temporal variations of mating frequency and the abundance of egg clutches of P. flagellata at Bacalar lagoon, as well as their relation with snails density and environmental variables. Sampling was done during the three climatic seasons: Rainy (July, August and September/2012), North or Cold fronts (December/2012 and January and February/2013) and Dry (March, April and May/2013) in 12 sampling stations located along the Bacalar lagoon. On each station a transect of 100 m length was set parallel to the edge, and the number of fresh egg clutches (pink color) laid over vegetation, rocks or manmade structures, were counted. In the water, three 50 x 2 m transects were set and the number of snails were counted as well as the mating frequency. Density of snails varied significantly among seasons, decreasing from the rainy to the dry season. There were no significant differences of snail abundance among months, nested in climatic seasons (ANOVA, p>0.05). During the rainy season the mating frequency was significantly higher than in the Norths, meanwhile in the dry season no mating were registered (Kruskal-Wallis, p˂0.05). Eggs clutches appeared from July to March. Density of egg clutches presented no differences between the Rainy and the North seasons (2.72 and 2.93 clutches/m, respectively), nonetheless during the dry season abundance of egg masses was significantly lower (0.1 clutches/m) (H, p˂0.05). Mating frequency was related with snail abundance (rs= 0.26; p<0.05) and water temperature (rs= 0.34; p<0.05) and the abundance of egg masses is related with snail abundance (rs= 0.46; p<0.05). In general, we observed that reproductive activity of P. flagellata at Bacalar lagoon is related with the warmer months and with higher rainfall. This finding is relevant to support the management of this resource in the region, so that to implement any management arrangement they must be aware that a temporal ban is necessary during the reproductive season at least.

Sobre esta especie existen pocos estudios y en ninguno se han abordado aspectos de su reproducción. Este caracol ha sido explotado durante años en la laguna Bacalar y sus poblaciones han decrecido considerablemente, conllevando a la veda de su captura. Este trabajo se realizó con el objetivo de evaluar las variaciones temporales de la frecuencia de cópulas y la abundancia de masas de huevos de P. flagellata en la laguna de Bacalar, así como sus relaciones con la abundancia de los caracoles y con variables ambientales. Los muestreos fueron realizados durante tres temporadas: Lluvias (julio, agosto y septiembre 2012), Nortes (diciembre 2012, enero y febrero 2013) y Secas (marzo, abril y mayo 2013) en 12 estaciones a lo largo de la laguna de Bacalar. En cada estación, se recorrió un transecto de 100 m paralelo a la orilla y se contó el número de huevas frescas (color rosado) puestas sobre la vegetación, troncos, rocas o estructuras artificiales. En el agua se hicieron tres transectos de 50 x 2 m y en cada uno se contaron los caracoles y se registró el número de cópulas. La densidad de caracoles mostró variaciones significativas entre temporadas, disminuyendo desde la temporada de Lluvias hasta la temporada de Secas. Entre los meses dentro de temporadas no se presentaron diferencias significativas (ANOVA, p>0.05). Durante toda la temporada de Lluvias se registraron cópulas con una frecuencia significativamente mayor que en Nortes, mientras en Secas no se registraron cópulas (Kruskal-Wallis, p˂0.05). La puesta de masas de huevos se extendió de julio a marzo. La densidad de huevas no presentó diferencias entre la temporadas de Lluvias y Nortes (2.72 masas/m y 2.93 masas/m, respectivamente), pero en Secas fue significativamente menor con un valor de 0.1 masas/m (H, p˂0.05). La frecuencia de cópulas se relacionó significativamente con la abundancia de caracoles (rs= 0.26; p<0.05) y con la temperatura del agua (rs= 0.34; p<0.05). La abundancia de masas de huevos se relaciona significativamente con la abundancia de individuos (rs= 0.46; p<0.05). De forma general se observó que la actividad reproductiva de P. flagellata en la laguna de Bacalar, está asociada a los meses más cálidos y con mayor precipitación. Este hallazgo es relevante para apoyar la gestión de este recurso en la región, de tal forma que para implementar alguna medida de manejo para esta especie, es necesario tener en cuenta que al menos se debe mantener una veda temporal durante la etapa reproductiva.Universidad de Costa Rica2016-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArticleartículo originalhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articletext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/rbt/article/view/2287110.15517/rbt.v64i4.22871Revista de Biología Tropical; Vol. 64 No. 4 (2016): Volume 64 – Regular number 4 – December 2016; 1643–1650Revista de Biología Tropical; Vol. 64 Núm. 4 (2016): Volumen 64 – Número regular 4 – Diciembre 2016; 1643–1650Revista Biología Tropical; Vol. 64 N.º 4 (2016): Volumen 64 – Número regular 4 – Diciembre 2016; 1643–16502215-20750034-774410.15517/rbt.v64i4reponame:Portal de Revistas UCRinstname:Universidad de Costa Ricainstacron:UCRspahttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/rbt/article/view/22871/26625https://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/rbt/article/view/22871/26626Derechos de autor 2016 Revista de Biología Tropicalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0acceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-06-09T17:58:04Zoai:portal.ucr.ac.cr:article/22871Portal de revistashttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/Universidadhttp://www.ucr.ac.crhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/index/oaijorge.polanco@ucr.ac.crCosta RicaNo aplicaNo aplicaNo aplicaopendoar:2025-08-13T10:19:42.886Portal de Revistas UCR - Universidad de Costa Ricafalse
