Tese de Doutorado Hirose, G. L., 2009 ABSTRACT: Like in the majority of marine invertebrates, the Brachyurans have larvae in their life-cycle which can be composed by several stages (zoeas) before they become competent for settlement. During such phase, the larvae are exposed to environmental variations, which influence their chances to survival and develop. Among these factors, we can mention the physical and chemical variables such as temperature, salinity, light and pollutants, in addition to some biological factors such as food availability and predation. The Ubatuba region has particular features concerning its water dynamics, with marked seasonal changes which may affect the coastal regions, promoting horizontal and vertical changes. A process of mixing between different water masses occurs promoting changes in the physical, chemistry and, consequently, biological structure. This paper describes the distribution and abundance of the major Brachyura Superfamilies found in the region of Ubatuba, its relationship with adult populations and physical changes resulting from environmental and seasonal dynamics of water masses. The plankton samplings were carried out seasonally during the years 2000 to 2002 in the inshore and offshore region of Ubatuba, SP, using a fishing boat, equipped with 2 conical plankton nets (with a flowmeter attached), and 8 sites demarcated arranged perpendicular to the coast. At each sampling site was recorded temperature and salinity (from bottom and surface). During the study period was evident the predominance of coastal waters (AC: T> 20 º C, S
