Abstract Microplastic pollution is a significant global environmental issue, and impacts span from individual organisms to the entire ecosystems. This study investigated properties of microplastics in amphibian larvae, shedding light on their interactions potential ecological consequences. We examined extracted larvae 10 taxa, sampled sites experiencing different levels human impact. Our findings revealed predominance blue fibres, each comprising 53% total larvae. fibres were also notably longer than other morphological types microplastics. Furthermore, we observed variations surface area among families. An interesting observation our research apparent positive relationship between size length granular flake-shaped Conversely, negative these These insights significantly contribute understanding microplastic freshwater environments, highlighting its complexities beyond marine emphasises intricate relationships organisms, underscoring need for comprehensive strategies mitigate pollution.
