Book Synopsis Chronic Effects of Methoxychlor on Bluegills and Aquatic Invertebrates by : Harry D. Kennedy
Book excerpt: Significantly higher numbers of aquatic insects were sampled in treated ponds than in untreated, and insect numbers at high-treatment ponds were significantly higher than at low-treatment ponds. Chironomids were dominant and significatnly increased after a certain level of treatment. Chironomids comprised 74 percent of samples from high-treatment ponds, but only 43 and 42 percent respectively fro untreated and low-treatment ponds. Methoxychlor residues were not detectable in pond-bottom mud samples.
