Subform VII: Scientific Study

1. Study Reference

Title Tebuconazole: Growth Inhibition Test with the Freshwater Diatom, Navicula pelliculosa (Final Report)

Date 11-MAR-19

2. a) Is an extension needed to translate the document?

No

3. Type of incident identified in the study

New health or environmental hazard

4. Describe the incident identified in the study (e.g. study demonstrates an increased risk to non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma after exposure to pesticide X)

The study report is entitled "Tebuconazole: Growth Inhibition Test with the Freshwater Diatom, Navicula pelliculosa" (MRID 50827301). The study reports a set of end-points for a species of non-vascular aquatic plant not previously tested for assessing risk of Tebuconazole to aquatic organisms. The reported LyC50 (96h) = 348 ug a.i./L for Navicula pelliculosa is 50% lower than the current non-vascular plant end-point. However, the new end-point is higher (lower toxicity) e than the end-points for aquatic vascular plants already considered in the current Risk assessment for Tebuconazole.
