description In this work the influence of the concentration of dissolved iron and nitrate in the water on the structure of the community of aquatic Coleoptera of a river in northwest Spain is analyzed. A total of 45 species and subspecies of aquatic Coleoptera (Adephaga and Polyphaga) were collected between March and November 1999 from 10 sites distributed along the Avia river (Ourense, N.W. Spain). Also, 24 physical and chemical parameters of water were measured and a CCA was made to evaluate which of these factors had the greatest influence on the studied fauna. At the same time an ecological analysis was made using the distribution of species and subspecies in relation to two water parameters (concentration of nitrate and dissolved iron). The study of distribution in relation to these factors by means of elaborating their ecological profiles suggested indicator species for each of these parameters. Seventeen species were found to be indicators for at least one of the parameters analyzed. The species Deronectes costipennis gignouxi, Enichocerus legionensis, Hydraena testacea, Megasternum obscurum, Nebrioporus depressus elegans and Stenelmis canaliculata are the best indicators of these parameters, if we consider only taxa collected in class 4, that is, with high values of iron and nitrate.

Un total de 45 especies y subespecies de Coleoptera acuáticos (Adephaga y Polyphaga) fueron recolectados entre marzo y noviembre de 1999 en 10 puntos distribuidos a lo largo del río Avia (Ourense, NW España). También se tomaron medidas de 24 de parámetros físicos y químicos del agua y se hizo un CCA para evaluar cuál de estos factores fue el de mayor influencia en la fauna estudiada. A partir de eso, realizamos un análisis ecológico de la distribución de la presencia de especies y subespecies en relación con dos factores químicos del agua (concentración de nitrato y hierro disuelto). El estudio de la distribución en relación con estos factores a través de la elaboración de sus perfiles ecológicos señaló las especies indicadoras para cada uno de estos parámetros, de acuerdo a su información recíproca de especie-factor. Diecisiete especies demostraron ser indicadoras de por lo menos unos de los parámetros analizados. Las especies Deronectes costipennis gignouxi, Enichocerus legionensis, Hydraena testacea, Megasternum obscurum, Nebrioporus depressus elegans y Stenelmis canaliculata son las mejores indicadoras de estos parámetros si tenemos en cuenta solo los taxones recogidos en la clase 4, es decir, con altos valores de hierro y nitrato. 22008-01-0120082008-01-01Articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://ddd.uab.cat/record/32781reponame:Dipòsit Digital de Documents de la UABinstname:Universitat Autònoma de BarcelonaInglésengopen accesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Aquest material està protegit per drets d'autor i/o drets afins.
