Estrutura da comunidade de reptéis em 6 (seis) pontos amostrais no médio Rio Caiapó - Goiás.

Abstract

The cerrado biome is considered the 2nd largest vegetation formation in Brazil occupies approximately 20% of its territory, with a variety of species about 15 million in total, with 810belonging to the class of reptiles that will be studied in this work, only the existing in the MiddleRio Kayapo. The goal is to identify the possible species of reptiles at the place of study, to see how many and what species they are, catalog them and raise the points with greater richness and abundance For this study we used two methodologies (Pit-Fall and scanning techniques) in six points, threeon the right side and three on the left bank. 27 were cataloged specimens of reptiles, divided into 01 class, order 01, 02 suborders, 08families, 11 genera and 12 species, species Tropidurus torquatus and Ameiva Ameiva showed higher frequency. The result shows the importance of the survey and study to understand the composition of faunalbiodiversity and thus enabling the planning of actions and decisions that enable the conservation of these species.
