Abstract

El estudio se realizó en 13 zonas del litoral peruano del lago Titicaca, durante la época seca, desde junio hasta agosto de 2017. En cada zona se determinó la abundancia relativa y uso de microhábitat de Telmatobius culeus. En las zonas de evaluación se utilizó buceo con esnórquel para realizar en cada una tres transectos de 100 m x 2 m, con un total de 38 transectos evaluados. Se registraron 45 individuos en solo seis zonas de evaluación. El mayor número de individuos se encontraron en la zona de Perka Norte, con una abundancia relativa de 10.33 individuos/hora/02 personas a una profundidad de 1.5 m; en siete zonas no se registró ningún indivi-duo. Los individuos fueron encontrados en los siguientes micro hábitats: 17 fueron encontrados sobre la vegetación acuática, 11 en arena combinado con vegetación acuática, 9 en roca combinado con vegetación acuática, 5 en fango combinado con vegetación acuática, 2 en roca y 1 en arena. a la vez se realizó análisis de diferentes parámetros de calidad de agua en cada zona de estudio, como: temperatura, pH, alcalinidad, dureza y oxígeno.

The Telmatobius culeus relative abundance and its microhabitat use was determined. In 13 areas of Peruvian littoral of Lake Titicaca was carried out, during the dry season, since June to August 2017. In each the evaluation areas, snorkeling was used to perform three 100 x 2 m transects. A total of 38 transects were evaluated. 45 individuals were registered in only six evaluation zones. The largest number of individuals were found in the North Perka area, with a relative abundance of 10.33 individuals/hour/02 people, at a depth of 1.5 m; in seven zones no individual was registered. Individuals were found in the following micro habitats: 17 were found on aquatic vegetation, 11 in sand combined with aquatic vegetation, 9 in rock combined with aquatic vegetation, 5 in mud combined with aquatic vegetation, 2 in rock and 1 in sand. At the same time, analyzes of different water quality para-meters were performed in each study area, such as: temperature, pH, alkalinity, hardness and oxygen.
