This paper presents the description and a brief discussion on the ichthyologic remains recovered from excavations in Moa’s Shellmound, located in Saquarema/RJ. There are 39 otoliths belonging to the taxa: Cynoscion sp., Micropogonias furnieri, Pogonias cromis and Genidens genidens, and 9 shark teeth of the genus Carcharhinus, Galeocerdo, Sphyrna, Carcharias and Isurus, these unprecedent even for the located area. And from these recordings, it was possible to verify paleoenvironment considerations, and the use of these fishes within the culture of the shellmound populations.
