description The plastics present in the rivers, lakes, seas and different terrestrial ecosystems, constitute a serious pollution problem and threaten the health of the different species that inhabit the mentioned ecosystems. As a result of this contamination, in the seas, fish confuse plastic with their food and consume them being contaminated, as indicated by several studies conducted in different parts of the world. The Mugil cephalus species known in Peru as "lisa", is widely consumed throughout the coast of Peru and common in the markets of Lima, given its importance, this study was conducted that aimed to determine the presence of microplastic in the stomach content of the resource. The stomach content of three fish acquired in the market of Villa María del Triunfo (Lima) was analyzed. The identification and quantification of the biological organisms consumed by the fish was performed, but the presence of plastic was also evaluated. According to the analysis, they effectively found several phytoplankton and zooplankton taxa, a common diet of this species, but we also show, after applying the buoyancy test with calcium chloride, the presence of microplastics in the stomach of fish. It is necessary that the state take actions to solve this problem of interest to the health of the sea and consumers in Peru.

Resumen Los plásticos presentes en los ríos, lagos lagunas, mares y diferentes ecosistemas terrestres, constituyen un serio problema de contaminación y atentan contra la salud de las diferentes especies que habitan los ecosistemas mencionados. Como consecuencia de esta contaminación, en los mares, los peces confunden el plástico con su alimento y los consumen quedando contaminados, según lo indican varios estudios realizados en diferentes partes del mundo. La especie Mugil cephalus conocido en Perú como “lisa”, es ampliamente consumido en toda la costa del Perú y común en los mercados de Lima, dada a su importancia, se realizó este estudio que tuvo el objetivo de determinar la presencia de plástico en el contenido estomacal del recurso. Se analizó el contenido estomacal de tres peces adquiridos en el mercado de Villa María del Triunfo (Lima). Se realizó la identificación y cuantificación de los organismos biológicos consumidos por los peces, pero también se evaluó la presencia de plástico. Según los análisis realizados, efectivamente  encontraron varios taxones de fitoplancton y zooplancton, común dieta de esta especie, pero también evidenciamos, luego de haber aplicado la prueba de flotabilidad con cloruro de calcio, la presencia de microplásticos en el estómago de peces. Es necesario que el estado tome acciones para dar solución a este problema de interés para la salud del mar y de los consumidores en el Perú.
