Resumen

Introducción: En los manglares, los microplásticos (MPs), (partículas < 0.5 mm) penetran profundamente en los sedimentos y pueden causar efectos adversos en las especies que los consumen accidentalmente, afectando su desarrollo, nutrición y calidad de vida en general. En Colombia, los estudios sobre la contaminación por plásticos y microplásticos se han centrado en la costa del Caribe y su consumo por parte de los peces, sin embargo, el Pacífico ha sido escasamente documentado. Objetivo: Confirmar la presencia de MPs en organismos de manglares de dos localidades de la Bahía de Buenaventura, Colombia, caracterizarlos y estimar su efecto sobre grupos tróficos. Métodos: Se seleccionaron dos especies de berberechos, Anadara similis y Anadara tuberculosa, y el cangrejo Goniopsis pulchra. Los MPs se extrajeron, contaron y clasificaron según su forma y color. Resultados: En total, 81 individuos fueron capturados. Se encontraron MPs en el 100 % de los organismos y los fragmentos transparentes fueron los más abundantes (56.40 %). Se encontró una media de 25.54 ± 23.8 partículas/individuo y no se encontraron diferencias entre los berberechos, pero sí entre cada uno de ellos respecto a G. pulchra. Conclusión: Los diferentes comportamientos alimentarios podrían explicar estas diferencias, las especies más generalistas ingerirían una cantidad más significativa de partículas. Esta es la primera aproximación al estudio de MPs dentro de organismos invertebrados en el Pacífico colombiano.
