Impact of temephos (Abate) on the non-target invertebrate fauna

Abstract

During six years of insecticide application against Simulium damnosum s.l., the side effects on the non-target macroinvertebrate fauna have been monitored. Using the correspondence analysis (reciprocal averaging), the authors point out the evidence of a long term effect of the pesticide (temephos) and consider the validity of the methods used for invertebrate sampling.The correspondence analysis of the data from Surber samples shows a modification in the population structure occurring after temephos treatment as well as a seasonal pattern. The substitution of an abundance quotation (i.e. codification) for the original counts does not modify the established typology.The target species Simulium damnosum s.l. and the species Tricorythus sp. (Ephemeroptera) appear to be the most sensitive organisms, and the density of Chironomidae and especially Tanytarsini rise markedly after treatment. The proportions of Baetidae and Hydropsychidae are lightly affected by the pesticide.Parallel studies carried out al a specific level of identification have shown that certain phenomena are masked in the monitoring results by the grouping of several species within the same taxon. The central position on graphs and thus the presumed insensitivity of Simuliid species other than S. damnosum is, in fact, the result of a variation in susceptibility amongst the species. S. adersi being sensitive, S. schoutedeni resistant and S. tridens apparently unaffected.The use of a calculated index of pollution resulting from the factorial axis of susceptibility obtained with coded data in the correspondence analyses, is proposed.

En Côte d’Ivoire, après six années de surveillance des milieux lotiques traités au téméphos dans le cadre du programme de lutte contre l’Onchocercose dans le bassin de la Volta, les auteurs mettent en évidence, à l’aide de l’analyse factorielle des correspondances, un impact à long terme du pesticide et s’interrogent sur la validité du protocole d’échantillonnage choisi pour la récolte des invertébrés.Une analyse factorielle des correspondances effectuées sur des données recueillies à l’échantillonneur de Surber montre une modification de la structure des peuplements après traitement au téméphos ainsi qu’une saisonnalité marquée. L’utilisation d’une cotation d’abondance ne perturbe pas la typologie établie. L’«espèce» cible Simulium damnosum s.l. et un Éphéméroptère, Tricorythus sp. apparaissent être les plus sensibles, par opposition aux Chironomidae et plus particulièrement aux Tanitarsini, dont la proportion dans les échantillons augmente notablement après traitement; Baetidae et Hydropsychidae réagissent peu à l’insecticide.Il est également démontré que certains phénomènes sont masqués du fait du regroupement de plusieurs espèces dans un taxon. Ainsi, la position centrale dans les représentations graphiques et donc l’insensibilité présumée des Simulies autres que S. damnosum résulte de la sensibilité variable des espèces concernées, sachant que l’on peut qualifier S. adersi de sensible, S. tridens d’indifférente et S. schoutedeni de résistante.Les auteurs proposent l’utilisation d’un indice synthétique de pollution issu de l’axe factoriel de sensibilité obtenu avec des données codées.
