          Abstract

          The purpose of this study was to analyze the population structure (spatial and temporal distribution, sex ratio, length distribution and length/weight relationship) and reproductive biology of Iheringichthys labrosus. This species is of importance as fisheries resource in the Paraná River basin. Fish were sampled, bimonthly, with gill and trammel nets at three sampling sites (Campina, Apertado and Altônia), located in the Piquiri River, between November 2002 and September 2003. In this study, 164 individuals were collected; the largest capture occurred in Campina site, with 209.88 individuals/1000 m² of net for 24 hours, while the shift of largest capture was night time (N) and the month was July. Females occurred in larger numbers than males in all periods. The growth was allometric positive and the reproduction period was from the beginning of September to the end of December, with the majority of the individuals showing a standard length between 13.0 and 20.0 cm.

          O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a estrutura populacional (distribuição espacial e temporal, proporção sexual, distribuição de comprimento e relação peso/comprimento) e a biologia reprodutiva de Iheringichthys labrosus, espécie de importante valor na pesca da bacia do rio Paraná. Os peixes foram coletados bimestralmente, entre novembro de 2002 e setembro de 2003, em três locais de amostragem (Campina, Apertado e Altônia) localizados no rio Piquiri, utilizando-se redes de espera do tipo simples e tresmalhos (emalhar). Nesse estudo foram coletados 164 indivíduos e a maior captura ocorreu no local Campina, com 209,88 indivíduos/1000 m² de rede por 24 horas, enquanto que o turno de maior captura foi o noturno (N) e o mês foi julho. O crescimento foi alométrico positivo e o período de reprodução foi do início de setembro ao final de dezembro, com a maioria dos indivíduos apresentando comprimento padrão entre 13,0 e 20,0 cm.
