- A flow through system for measuring filtration rate of bivalve is described. The principle of measurement was to calculate the decrease of algal concentration in the water medium where the experimental animal was placed. The measuring system was tested to calculate the phytoplankton consumption related to dry body weight of scallop Pecten maximum L. coming from different populations. This correlation is expressed by allometric equation (Y=aX^b). Allometric equation of Brest, Saint Brieux, Scotland, Ireland populations are: 85.17X^0.12, 97.18X^0.16, 85.98X0.18, and 75.70X0.18 successfully.
