this article aimed to describe the subsistence fisheries of traditional populations of three ethnic groups, one ashaninka and two kaxinaw芍, lying on the banks of the river breu. initially, monitors were trained to fill logbooks with data from fisheries of the villages during an annual cycle (august/1995 august/1996). based on these data, it was realized an inventory of the most common fish species caught as well as one about the fishing environment. the following results were obtained: i) indians prefer to use pools, locally known as %26quot;poˋos%26quot;, for fishing; ii) the most common caught species are the %26quot;mandis%26quot; (35%, pimelodidae), armored catfishes (loricariidae), specially hypostomus sp. (25%), the %26quot;curimat芍%26quot; (9%, prochilodus sp.) and the %26quot;saburus%26quot; (8%, curimatidae), among others; iii) the fishing gears that lead to a high rate of fishing are the native %26quot;tingui%26quot;, nets and bow and arrows; iv) fisheries are more intensive during summer; v) the fishing effort and their associated factors statistically significant in predicting the catches in the indian reserve were f1 = number of fishermen, f2 = (number of fishermen*total time devoted to fishing), f3 = [(number of fishermen)*(total time devoted to fishing)-(the time displacement)] and the factor villages and fishing gears; vi) although almost all the fisheries are done by walking to the fishing places, catches increase when paddle boats are used; and vii) the most active fishermen belong to kaxinaw芍 tribe.
