fluometuron and diuron are urea herbicides used for weed control in cotton and sugarcane. they are known to inhibit the hill reaction which involves the oxygen evolution site of the photosystem ii. the inhibition prevents the formation of atp and nadpah which are necessary for co//2 fixation. previous studies performed with fluometuron included its effect on embryonation and hatching of f hepatica's miracidia. in the study reported in this paper, the effects of of fluometuron and diuron were experimentally assessed on the lymnaeid snails which are non-target organisms of these herbicides. study materials, methods and results are discussed results obtained from each herbicide showed a dosage-dependent relationship. both diuron and fluometuron can be used as a controlling agent for lymnaeid snails but, diuron would be the most effective controlling agent
