    GUANGZHOU, Jan. 10 (Xinhua) -- A large number of fish were found dead Monday in a major river in the southern province of Guangdong, local authorities confirmed Tuesday.

    Floating fish were reported in a three-kilometer section of the Xijiang River in the Jiangmen City on Monday morning, but the situation improved Tuesday with no more dead fish found, said Zhao Yanqiang, spokesman for the city's publicity department.

    An initial probe has ruled out a lack of oxygen or low water temperatures as the cause of the death.
