## Abstract Two 10βd waterβonly toxicity tests with radiolabeled fluoranthene were conducted with two species of freshwater amphipods, __Hyalella azteca__ and __Diporeia__ sp. For __H. azteca__, 10βd median lethal concentrations were 564 nmol/L and 481 nmol/L. Tentative median lethal doses, determi
Two freshwater amphipods, Hyalella azteca and Diporeia sp., were exposed to sediment spiked with radiolabeled fluoranthene at nominal concentrations of 0.1 (trace) to 1,270 nmol fluoranthene/g dry weight. In two experiments, uptake kinetics and mortality were determined over 30-d exposures. Concentr
