Abstract: Initiation and progress of limb regeneration were altered in fifth periopod severed P. indicus exposed to different sublethal concentrations of phosphamidon. Inhibition of limb regeneration was dose dependent. Phosphamidon caused inhibition in regeneration and delayed the initiation of limb bud development in lower concentration (0.01, 0.02, 0.05 and 0.1 ppm) but in higher concentrations (0.2 ppm) both the processes were inhibited. Results suggested that crustaceans limb regeneration can be taken as a parameter for assessing toxic effects of environmental pollutants.
