evaluation of a pesticide
I have found daphne as a flower (which does not fit with the context) and as Daphne, an EC ecological programme, which DOES fit but I want to be sure I'm not missing something. The paragraph heading is Effects on aquatic organisms.
"La toxicité aiguë de la préparation XXX n'est pas plus élevée que celle de la substance active pour le poisson. Par ailleurs, la toxicité aiguë de la préparation XXX YY (même coformulant que XXX avec dinocap pour substance active) n'est pas plus toxique que le dinocap pour les poissons et la daphnie (espèces les plus sensibles)."
Is daphnie (or daphne) also a fish by any chance? Or does it just mean the EC programme for more sensitive species?
Many thanks

daphnia (water flea)
"Why Daphnia?
Daphnia, popularly known as water fleas, are small crustaceans that live in fresh water such as ponds, lakes, and streams. They serve as an important source of food for fish and other aquatic organisms. Daphnia are excellent organisms to use in bioassays because they are sensitive to changes in water chemistry and are simple and inexpensive to raise in an aquarium. They mature in just a few days, so it does not take long to grow a culture of test organisms. "
