Análise faunística de insetos associados à cultura da cana de-açúcar, em área de cerrado, no município de Maurilândia – Goiás – Brasil

Abstract

The objective of this work was to study the Entomofaunaassociated with the commercial cultivation of sugarcane inthe municipality of MaurilândiaGoiás. The study wasconducted between 25 and 31 March 2018. Four types oftraps were used: Pitfall, Shanon tent, human bait,entomological network (PUÇÁ), in 6 sampling points. Thesamples were collected seven times per sampling point. Theresults indicate the presence of 123 123 morphospeciesdistributed in 13 13 orders and 55 families with a totalabundance of 4566 specimens. The species with the highestabundance was the Atta SP with 2017 individuals, followedby the Culicoides furens with 272, Scolytidae with 188,ketone with 127, Culex Culex with 122, Paranoponema with92, solenopsis with 81 and Timitidae with 70 individuals andwith less abundance was: Brachynymex , Dolichoderus,Proctotrupidae, Multilidae, Orthopodomyia,Dolichopodidae, Chrysomelidae and Flatidae. The techniqueof occasional meeting was the most representative with43.91% and the highest richness occurred in thesemideciduous forest with the presence of 104 morphospecies. The result shows the importance of thesurvey and study of the entomofaunistic composition forunderstanding biodiversity and thus enabling the planningof actions and decisions that enable the conservation ofthese species.
