Cadmium, lead, nickel and mercury were contamination in gill, liver and muscle of B. grypus and B. xanthopterus in Karoon and Dez Rivers. Significant variations in metal values were evaluated using student's t test at p < 0.05. In B. grypus high levels of cadmium, lead, nickel and mercury were measured in gill (1.49, 2.25, 1.02 and 0.89 mg kg(-1) dw) except for mercury (1.06 mg kg(-1) dw) in B. grypus in Dez River was high in liver. In B. xanthopterus high levels of cadmium, lead, nickel and mercury were measured in gill (2.17, 2.91 and 1.43 mg kg(-1) dw) except for mercury (1.42 mg kg(-1) dw) high levels were measured in liver.
