ABSTRACT Benthic aquatic macroinvertebrates (BAM), are organisms that by their characteristics, both individual level and as a community, are considered as efficient bioindicators of the quality of water bodies. The objective of this research was to relate changes in community structure of BAM with the variation of the parameters associated with water quality in the Mashcón river. For it, there were selected five sampling stations where water samples were taken for physical, chemical and microbiological analysis and were collected the BAM, which were preserved for further analysis. The parameters of water quality in the five sampling stations indicate a marked variation as for variables related to the quantity of organic matter present in water as the BOD 5 and COD; as also in total coliforms. These parameters are associated with anthropogenic disturbance, which is related to the proximity of the sampling stations with human settlements. The community of benthic aquatic macroinvertebrates recorded in the five sampling stations totaled 1,091 individuals who were distributed in 7 orders and 17 families, of which 14 correspond to insect families, being the group with the greatest presence at the five stations. On the stations E1 and E2 was observed a higher abundance of Chironomidae family, which are considered indicators of water contaminated with organic matter. On the stations E3, E4 and E5 was the Batidae family, which presented a higher abundance, though also was recorded on the station two, which has a high degree of disturbance, so it not precisely indicate waters of good quality. Not being the case of Leptophlebiidae family (order Ephemeroptera) and families belonging to the Trichoptera and Coleoptera orders that only were recorded in the E4 and E5 stations, which present a minor disturbance, for what these families would indicate a better quality of water. As for the diversity indexes applied to the results show that the E4 and E5 stations have the highest diversity (H´), which would indicate that these are waters of good quality. The BAM’s community was characterized in function of the trophic group that they belong. The results show how these vary in each station, finding a low diversity in the E1, E2 and E3 stations; in relation to E4 and E5 stations witch showing a high variety of trophic groups. The biotic indexes (BI) used in this study showed a similar general trend in the five sampling stations and it allowed to define environments in good condition and others, strongly impacted from the biological point of view. The biotic indexes indicate that the stations one, two and three are those that present major disturbance, being the station one, which a higher pollution would present. On having analyzed the results obtained in the five sampling stations in the Mashcón river, it is concluded that exist a correlation between the parameters of water quality and the BAM. Being based on the study of the BAM community in function of the abundance of family, diversity indexes, trophic groups and the application of biotic indexes (BI) to determine water quality; in relation to physical, chemical and microbiological parameters that were recorded at each sampling station. KEYWORDS: macroinvertebrates, quality, bioindicators, pollution, Cajamarca, Mashcón river.
