英文摘要 | In the present study, we assessed the potential of dipterans as functional indicators of extreme drought. Dipteran assemblages were sampled four times in 2014 and 2015 at 141 sites, from six reservoirs located in two semi-arid watersheds. Our results showed that dipteran functional traits changed over an extreme drought period (p < 0.0001) and were associated with different environmental variables. Body size, feeding group, feeding strategy, preferential habit and tubule positions changed in dominance over time. Small engulfers were more abundant in the driest period and significantly associated with water quality variables, such as chlorophyll-a, turbidity and total dissolved solids. In the driest months, negative correlations were found between smaller organisms, presence of hemoglobin, short pseudopods and sprawler habit and water and habitat parameters (e.g., organic matter). We found that during the study period, there was a decrease in functional richness and increase in functional evenness in communities, indicating functional loss and a greater biotic homogenization. Therefore, future management plans of reservoirs and other freshwater ecosystems, especially in areas with frequent drought events (such as arid and semi-arid areas), should consider the importance of maintaining a certain water quantity to guarantee ecosystem functioning during the dry season. |
