Behavioral responses have been used since these may be important determinants of the ability for a species to survive and reproduce under natural conditions. This has been examined in the amphipod Pontoporeia affinis, which is an important food for fish in the Baltic Sea. In organisms exposed to sublethal concentrations of phenols and styrene in a flow-through system (Lindstrom and Lindstrdm 1980), there was an initial stimulation of motility, although the...
