Abstract: | Summary The toxic effects of Temik (aldicarb) on a fresh water Himalyan lake teleost,Barbus conchonius were investigated in hard and soft water. The 48-, 72- and 96-h TLm-values in mg/l were 8.99, 2.39 and 2.42 respectively in the hard-water test and 3.30, 0.62 and 0.46 in the soft-water test. The toxicity of Temik toB. conchonius increases many fold in soft water.One of us (S. C. P.) is grateful to U. G. C., for the award of a senior research fellowship. |
