摘要
Mosses and liverworts can be colonized by various invertebrates, including fresh water oligochaete worms. However, little information is available on the habits and habitats of this oligochaetes in Brazil. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to examine the occurrence of naidids in mosses, as well as to broaden the knowledge about the habitats of these oligochaetes. Sampling of bryophytes adhered to rock substrates in the rapids of the Jacare Pepira River (municipality of Brotas, Sao Paulo, Brazil) and to a vertical rock wall of a waterfall near the river revealed 191 Naididae individuals of the species Nais communis Piguet, 1906, Pristinella jenkinae (Stephenson, 1931) and Pristinella menoni (Aiyer, 1929). We believe this to be the first record of naidids associated with mosses in Brazil.
