          Abstract

          Interpreting fish community records is challenging for several reasons, including the lack of past ichthyofauna data, the cyclical temporal variations in the community, and the methodology employed, which usually underestimates fish assemblages. The objective of this study was to describe short-scale and meso-scale (nycthemeral period and months, respectively) temporal variations in the ichthyofauna composition and structure of a sheltered beach of Baía Norte (Florianópolis, Santa Catarina state, Brazil), using a capéchade net. Samples were collected monthly for a period of 48 hours. During the period from December 2010 to November 2011, a total of 19,302 individuals belonging to 89 species and 39 families were captured. The number of individuals that were sampled during the day and/or night was dependent on the sampling month. On average, the daytime assemblage was more abundant and different in structure and composition than the nighttime assemblage. Of the eight species that had the highest Index of Relative Importance (%IRI), five had higher variations (ANOVA F) between the day and night than between the months. This finding reinforced the need for sampling during both the day and night. The capéchade net effectively captured demersal and pelagic individuals in a broad range of sizes.

          A interpretação dos registros da comunidade ictíica têm se mostrado um desafio por diversos motivos, entre eles a falta de dados pretéritos, existência de variações temporais cíclicas na comunidade e pelos métodos utilizados que geralmente subamostram a assembleia. Neste sentido, o objetivo do presente trabalho foi descrever o padrão de variação temporal (nictemeral e mensal) na composição e na estrutura da ictiofauna de uma praia abrigada da Baía Norte de Florianópolis, usando uma rede capéchade. Coletas foram realizadas mensalmente, integrando um período de 48 horas/mês. Durante os meses de dezembro de 2010 a novembro de 2011, 19302 indivíduos distribuídos em 89 espécies e 39 famílias foram capturados. O número de indivíduos capturados durante o dia e/ou noite foi dependente do mês de coleta. Em média, a assembleia foi mais abundante durante o dia, diferindo em estrutura e composição do período da noite. Das oito espécies com maior Índice de Importância Relativa (IRI%), cinco apresentaram maior variação (F ANOVA) entre o dia e a noite do que a verificada entre os meses, o que reforça a necessidade de amostragens durante o dia e a noite. A rede capéchade foi eficiente na captura de indivíduos demersais e pelágicos com ampla faixa de tamanho.
