Survival, and growth of Neocloeon triangulifer under different test conditions in effluent style evaluations
August 19, 2022
Dataset consists of 4, 7, 10, and 14-day responses of laboratory cultured mayflies (Neocloeon triangulifer) to sodium chloride exposure under different test condition scenarios. Responses were measured as mortality and growth (length). Water quality and analytical chemistry results associated with toxicity data are included. Experiments included 1) testing the influence of organism age on mortality and growth in 7-day tests, 2) testing the influence of test duration on mortality and growth, 3) testing the influence of temperature on mortality and growth, 4) testing the influence of nutrient amendments to mayfly test dilution water on mortality and growth

Influence of test method variables on sensitivity of Neocloeon triangulifer to a reference toxicant in short-term, effluent style evaluations
Recent literature has demonstrated the sensitivity of mayflies to environmental contaminants. However, to date, there are no methods approved by the US Environmental Protection Agency for using sensitive insects like mayflies in whole-effluent toxicity or receiving water toxicity tests. The parthenogenetic mayfly Neocloeon triangulifer has been shown to be amenable to continuous culture in the lab
