| Abstract | |
The present study aimed at presenting the biovolume of planktonic and periphytic cyanobacteria and algae from reservoirs with different trophic status at Parque Estadual das Fontes do Ipiranga, São Paulo, São Paulo State, Brazil. The study includes a proposal for determining the biovolume of colonial forms of Cyanobacteria such as Microcystis and Sphaerocavum. The list of biovolume will contribute to algal ecology studies, allowing the application of this information to research in this area of knowledge, besides serving as a comparative model for other tropical ecosystems. The list comprises the biovolume of 568 taxa, including information on their taxonomic classes, maximum linear dimension and surface/volume ratio. (AU) | |
