Abstract

Registrou-se de janeiro a dezembro de 2006 a presença dos peixes exóticos Kribensis Pelvicachromis pulcher (Boulenger, 1901), Ramirezi boliviano Mikrogeophagus altispinosus (Haseman, 1911) e Beijador Helostoma temminckii Cuvier, 1829 para a bacia do rio Paraíba do Sul, Estado de Minas Gerais, Brasil. Com esses novos achados, o total de peixes exóticos aumenta para 44 na bacia. As espécies de Kribensis, Ramirezi boliviano e Beijador chegaram até os novos ecossistemas devido a fugas de tanques de pisciculturas ornamentais localizadas no maior pólo de piscicultura ornamental do país.It was reported from January to December, 2006 the presence of exotics Rainbow krib Pelvicachromis pulcher (Boulenger, 1901), Bolivian ram Mikrogeophaguss altispinosus (Haseman, 1911) and Kissing gourami Helostoma temminckii Cuvier, 1829 for the Paraíba do Sul river basin, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. According to these new findings, the total of exotic fish species for the basin increases to 44. The species of Rainbow krib, Bolivian ram and Kissing gourami arrived to the new ecosystems due to escapes from ponds of ornamental fish farms located at the largest ornamental pisciculture center in the country.
