Abstract
Reduction in the energy available for clams to grow and reproduce was induced mainly via decreased energy acquisition, and delayed and/or reduced functions of the digestive organs. In addition, this is the first report of decreased neuroenzymatic activity in two bivalve molluscs induced by exposure to H. circularisquama potentially via either neurotoxic compounds affecting the activity of gill cilia and/or gill muscles, and/or potentially via either neurotoxic compounds affecting the activity of gill cilia and/or gill muscles, and/or non-cholinergic affects associated with other functions; both resulting in decreased SFG. The relationship between the decreased AChE and decreased SFG should be corroborated in future research.
