Abstract

ABSTRACT: The Knowledge of the initial diversity of entomofauna in eucalyptus spp forest stands. it can provide an effective characterization of the insect community, evidencing aspects of local diversity, besides contributing to the registration of insect pests with potential for crop damage, biological control agents, pollinators among other organisms and their complex trophic networks. Thus, the study aimed to perform the survey and faunistic analysis of the entomofauna associated with clonal experimental forest settlement of the hybrid Eucalyptus urograndis (clones TP361, VCC865, I144 and VE41), through manual collection in the State of Alagoas. The collections were carried out between January 2018 and January 2019 in six-month-old plots, and the branches of the plants were evaluated, analyzing the presence of individuals. The diversity of entomofauna and faunistic indices were determined using the ANAFAU software. A total of 577 individuals were collected, distributed in 10 orders, and coleoptera orders (30.4%), Hemiptera (23.58%) and Hymenoptera (13.73) the ones that stood out the most for the greater number of captured individuals. The Chrysomelidae family presented expressive indexes for all clones evaluated, due to a population outbreak of C. ferruginea in the study area. Clone I144 presented higher diversity value of Shannon-Weaner (H') (2.7) when compared to the other clones, TP361 (2.6), VE41 (2.5) and clone VCC865 (2.4), which presented lower diversity index.
