Abstract
Acute toxicity tests were conducted on permethrin (Pounce®), a synthetic pyrethroid, by using 8-12- and 20-30-mm Louisiana red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii), fry channel catfish (Ietalurus punctatus), fingerling largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis), and bullfrog tadpoles (Rana catesbeiana). The 96-h LC50 values were 0.39, 0.62, 1.1, 8.5, 15.0, and 7, 033 µg/liter, respectively. © 1978 by the American Fisheries Society.
