Abstract
In this study, the seasonal fluctuations of zooplankton and specific physico-chemical parameters were examined in Dudhiya Talab, a significant artificial reservoir located in Sirohi, Rajasthan. During the research period, a total of 41 zooplankton species were identified, comprising 12 species of Rotifera, 14 species of Cladocera, 5 species of Ostracoda, and 4 species of Copepoda. Among these, Rotifera emerged as the predominant group, with a peak abundance of 689 individuals per liter recorded in the summer, while the lowest numbers were noted during the winter season. Additionally, the zooplankton community exhibited correlations with various physico-chemical parameters. The findings of this research suggest that the distribution and density of zooplankton species are significantly affected by the prevailing physical and chemical conditions of the aquatic environment. Key words: Zooplankton, Physico-chemical factors,P Cladocera, Rotifera.
