Two formulations of the organophosphorus insecticide, temephos (Abathion Granulare, 1% AI granular and Tambro Compresse, 2% AI tablet) were evaluated against Chironomus salinarius midge larvae in 50 x 50 m experimental plots in the saltwater lagoon of Venice, Italy. Each formulation was applied at 0.2 and 0.4 kg AI/ha. Abathion Granulare produced 56 to 73% larval reduction at 0.2 kg AI/ha and 69 to 83% reduction at 0.4 kg AI/ha during 3 wk after treatment. Abathion Granulare lost effectiveness at 4 wk after application at both rates. Posttreatment larval reductions resulting from Tambro Compresse applications ranged from 77 to 86% for 3 wk, and 82 to 92% for 4 wk at rates of 0.2 and 0.4 kg AI/ha, respectively. The tablet formulation (Tambro Compresse) gave better control of C. salinarius (magnitude and duration) than the granular formulation (Abathion Granulare) in these evaluations.
