Abstract: The intertidal clams, Gafrarium divaricatum were exposed to sublethal concentrations of xylene, benzene and water soluble fractions of gear oil up to one month Alterations in oxygen consumption and filtration rate of the G. divaricatum were noted after 96 h and one month exposure period. Pollutant stress was found to suppress the oxygen consumption and filtration rate of the clams when exposed for a long period.
