In contrast to marine organisms, the presence of microplastics (MPs) in freshwater animals remains insufficiently studied. The aim of this study was to identify the occurrence of MPs in the digestive tracts of two fish species from a small lowland river (Widawa R., SW Poland). In total, 202 gudgeons and 187 roaches were collected, of which 54.5% and 53.9% had ingested MP-like particles, respectively. Feeding type and behaviour, sex and capture site (above or below the dam reservoir) did not affect the number of fish with MP-like particles.
与海洋生物相比，微塑料（MPs）在淡水动物中的存在仍研究不足。本研究的目的是在一条小的低地河流（波兰西南部的威德瓦河）的两种鱼类的消化道中鉴定 MPs 的存在情况。共采集了 202 条鱵鱼和 187 条圆腹雅罗鱼，分别有 54.5%和 53.9%的个体吞食了类似 MPs 的颗粒。摄食类型和行为、性别以及捕获地点（大坝水库上方或下方）均未影响吞食类似 MPs 颗粒的鱼类数量。
