Big eyes can't see microplastics: Feeding selectivity and eco-morphological adaptations in oral cavity affect microplastic uptake in mud-dwelling amphibious mudskipper fish
Original language description
Microplastic contamination is a widespread global problem. Plastic pollution in the oceans has received a lot of news coverage, but there is a significant gap in our knowledge about its effect in estuarine areas and a profound regional bias in available information. Here, we estimated the degree of microplastic pollution, its impact on a selected fish, and its function as a vector for heavy metals in the Ulhas River estuary, which is one of the most fragile, polluted, and anthropogenically impacted estuaries in India. Using mudskipper fish, we have also assessed how the feeding guild and ecomorphological adaptations in the feeding apparatus affected the microplastic intake and life history traits of the fish. Sediment, water and fish samples were collected from three sampling localities S1, S2 and S3 in the Ulhas River estuary and analysed.
