Abstract:
Studies related to macroinvertebrates that have been carried out within the Lagunas de Zempoala National Park (PNLZ), Morelos, Mexico, have focused mainly on three of the four lakes that still have water resources available. With this, it can be considered that the information on the macroinvertebrate communities in this area continues to be relatively unknown. The present work is aimed at recording the biodiversity of macroinvertebrates that inhabit the coastal zone of Lake Acoyotongo of the PNLZ. Four collection campaigns were carried out, considering the rainy and dry seasons. A total of 7,822 organisms were obtained, distributed in three phyla, six taxonomic classes: Arachnida, Clitellata, Entognatha, Gastropoda, Insecta and Malacostraca; 14 orders and 26 families. The Insecta class presented six orders obtaining the greatest richness of species: Hemiptera with five families; Coleoptera, Diptera and Odonata with three families each; Ephemeroptera and Lepidoptera with one family each. The study defined the ecological state of the lake, since its members reflect how the community relates in the sense of the functionality of the system.
