Note<br />

_ Temephos Review article.<br />

Generally temephos at field rates <strong>in</strong>duced detachment Opong<br />

of <strong>in</strong>vertebrates from their substrates. Some groups -Mensah<br />

affected more (Ephemeroptera; Simulium sp.;). Others 1984<br />

<strong>in</strong>creased (spceically Chironomidae).<br />

Japan Temphos 5 ppm/30m<strong>in</strong> G Both <strong>in</strong>secticides killed the majority of the zoobenthos Yasuno<br />

Chlorphoxim 2 ppm/3 hours and resulted <strong>in</strong> a bloom of epilithic algae. The et. al. 1985<br />

chironomid populations recovered quickly but the<br />

trichopteran larvae slowly. (outdoor model stream study).<br />

Ivory Temephos 0.05-0.1 Alternate use of the 3 <strong>in</strong>secticides (but ma<strong>in</strong>ly temephos Elouard and<br />

coast Chlorphoxim ppm/10m<strong>in</strong> ? and chlorphoxim) dur<strong>in</strong>g 3 years, showed no difference Gibon, 1984<br />

10 m<strong>in</strong> Change <strong>in</strong> structure: Ephemeroptera (Baetidae)<br />

H-14 H/FW decreased (esp. with chlorphoxim). Chironomidae<br />

<strong>in</strong>creased whatever <strong>in</strong>secticide is used.<br />

Togo Temephos 0.05ppm/ H/G Detachment of benthic fauna <strong>in</strong> gutters positioned <strong>in</strong> the Yameogo<br />

Azamethiphos 10m<strong>in</strong> river was 32-38% (azamethifos), 31% (temephos) and et. al. 1984<br />

0.17-0.2ppm/<br />

17% (control). Surber samples showed 42% detachment<br />

10m<strong>in</strong><br />

of fauna <strong>in</strong> situ azamethifos) Population structure was<br />

unaffected. Bulk of drift were Simultidae, Chironomidae,<br />

Ephemeroptera. (Short term experiment: 48 hours).<br />

Togo Permathr<strong>in</strong> 0.015 ppm/ H Detachment of benthic fauna 59-77%. Ephemeroptera Paugy<br />

10m<strong>in</strong> (94-98% detachment) and Simuliidae (89-100% det.) et. al. 1984<br />

were affected most. Chironomidae fairly <strong>in</strong>sensitive<br />

(6-29% det.) (all gutter experiments). In situ same<br />

pattern (surber samples).<br />

Concluded that short term effect of permethr<strong>in</strong> on nontarget<br />

aquatic fauna is far more drastic than temephos.<br />
