          Abstract

          A espécie Hoplerythrinus unitaeniatus é conhecida popularmente como jeju ou aimara. Possui ampla distribuição geográfica, ocorrendo em diversas bacias hidrográficas da América Central e do Sul, com sua localidade tipo, o Rio São Francisco. No Brasil o registro mais ao Sul da espécie é a bacia do Rio Uruguai, Rio Grande do Sul. O presente estudo reporta a primeira ocorrência de H. unitaeniatus no Sistema da Laguna dos Patos, Região Hidrográfica do Guaíba, Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. A captura ocorreu em um banhado adjacente ao Rio dos Sinos no Município de São Leopoldo (29° 44' 14,04" S e 51° 05' 11,08" W). Dois exemplares foram coletados com redes de arrasto em maio de 2008. Um dos espécimes foi anestesiado com 2-phenoxy-ethanol, fixado em formalina 10%, identificado e incluído na coleção de peixes do Museu de Ciências e Tecnologia da Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul. O segundo espécime foi mantido vivo em aquário durante dez meses, vindo a óbito por debilidade devido a infestação por Lernaea cyprinacea (Crustacea, Copepoda). A presença de lérnea e a facilidade de criação em cativeiro da espécie fazem factível pensar que os peixes escaparam de alguma piscicultura da região. A captura acidental não reflete na proliferação de uma população auto-sustentável, mas direciona à falta de fiscalização para a criação e comercialização de espécies alóctones e exóticas, que futuramente tendem a gerar a homogeneização da biota aquática.

          Translated abstract

          Hoplerythrinus unitaeniatus is popularly known as jeju or aimara. Widely distributed, occurs in many Central and South America basins, with the São Francisco River as type locality. In Brazil, the southernmost record of the species is the Uruguay River, Rio Grande do Sul State. This study reports the first record of H. unitaeniatus in the Patos Lagoon system, Guaiba hydrographic region, state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The capture occurred in a floodplain adjacent of the Sinos River near São Leopoldo city (29° 44' 14.04" S and 51° 05' 11.08" W). Two specimens were collected with drag net in May 2008. One specimen was anesthetized with 2-phenoxy-ethanol solution, fixed in formalin 10%, identified and included in the Museu de Ciências e Tecnologia da Pontífícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul fish collection. The second specimen was kept alive in aquarium. After ten months it died of Lernaea cyprinacea (Crustacea, Copepoda) infestation. The presence of Lernaea and ease of captive breading of this species support the hypothesis that the collected fish escaped from regional fish farms. The accidental capture does not necessarily reflect a self-sustaining population, but shows the absence of supervision on breeding and marketing of non-native species, which may lead to a homogenized aquatic community.

          Homogenization of fish faunas across the United States.

          Fish faunas across the continental United States have become more similar through time because of widespread introductions of a group of cosmopolitan species intended to enhance food and sport fisheries. On average, pairs of states have 15.4 more species in common now than before European settlement of North America. The 89 pairs of states that formerly had no species in common now share an average of 25.2 species. Introductions have played a larger role than extirpations in homogenizing fish faunas. Western and New England states have received the most introductions, which is a reflection of the small number of native fishes in these areas considered desirable gamefish by settlers.
