Effects of tebufenpyrad on freshwater systems dominated by Neocaridina palmata, Physa fontinalis, and Ceratophyllum demersum

Few studies have been reported on the effects of acaricides on the population dynamics of shrimp and related taxa such as molluscs, macrophytes, phytoplankton, microorganisms etc. In the present study, we tested the effects caused by a single application of tebufenpyrad by constructing an indoor microcosm system. This system is mainly composed of Neocaridina palmata, Physa fontinalis and Ceratophyllum demersum
