Resumen

The knowledge about the composition, abundance, and distribution of phytoplankton species is crucial for understanding the dynamics of aquatic ecosystems and monitoring water quality. Given the lack of information in the field of phycology in the city of Aquidauana (MS) and with the aim of contributing to the expansion of knowledge about the subject in the region, this study sought to conduct a qualitative survey of green algae Charophyta in the Lagoa Comprida Natural Park. The research spanned from February to November 2019, encompassing four collections sampled at three randomly distributed points in the lagoon. The samples were collected following the plankton net filtering protocol. A total of 125 morphological species of Charophyta were documented, distributed across 19 genera and belonging to the class Zygnematophyceae. Notably, 79 of the identified species represent new records for the State of Mato Grosso do Sul.
