Identificação morfométrica da espécie predominante Varroa (Parasitiformes: Varroidae) nas colônias de abelhas em Hopelchén, Campeche

Autores

Resumo

Mundialmente, a varroose continua sendo o principal problema sanitário nos sistemas de produção apícola,
causando grandes perdas econômicas; atualmente na Península de Yucatan a presença de Varroa tem
sido relatada, no entanto, desconhece-se qual das 4 espécies parasitam as abelhas Apis mellifera no
Estado de Campeche. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi identificar morfometricamente as espécies
predominantes de Varroa (Parasitiformes: Varroidae) nas colônias de abelhas em Hopelchén, Campeche;
para este fim, foram avaliadas 61 colmeias de 5 apiários, 200 a 300 abelhas foram coletadas de cada um;
para a análise morfométrica, 244 ácaros foram colocados em ácido lático a 50% durante 2 horas a 100ºC,
e depois os segmentos foram medidos em um micrômetro ocular. Os resultados indicaram que 100% dos
ácaros avaliados pertenciam à espécie Varroa destructor, os clusters de K significa que indicaram
diferenças intraespecíficas (P< 0,05) e 5 morfotipos de V. destructor foram observados. As variáveis que
apresentaram maior variabilidade foram a largura do escudo anal (P=0,001) e a largura do escudo genital
(P=0,001). Conclui-se que, embora 100% dos ácaros pertencessem ao V. destructor, apresentavam
diferenças morfométricas intra-específicas.
