Abstract:
The present studies were investigated for a period of one year sampling every month. The
zooplankton comprised of 36 species belonging to three group viz.,Rotifera, Cladocera and
Copepoda. The relative abundance of Rotifera was high in two different studied areas (site 2 and
site 3) 43.08% and 38.60% respectively. The zooplankton species richness indices were high in
water sources of site 2 than the other observed study areas. The detailed aspect of composition,
abundance and diversity trend of zooplankton is investigated herein. The findings of the present
study provide useful knowledge on the spatial organization of zooplankton diversity in different
types of water sources as well as can be used as management strategies to protect the aquatic
biodiversity in the agricultural area |
