Abstract

The bivalves have been used for many years to determine the pollution status of water. When freshwater bivalve, Lamellidens marginalis exposed to 3.55 ppm, 2.42 ppm, 1.79 ppm and 0.98 ppm LC50 concentration at 24 to 96 hrs of periods of intervals. Showed Different physiological and morphologically changes were observed in tributyltin chloride exposed groups. There is no any kind of change observed in control groups of bivalves. From this study we concluded that toxicity of TBTCL was responsible for behavioral changes in L. marginalis.
