Abstract
The present study reported on phytoplankton in comparison to the zooplankton in Limha Pond, Ghutku, Bilaspur. The phytoplankton represented in larger number of Cyanophyceae with least density of Dinophyceae and Chlorophyceac, and Bacillariophyceae is the second dominant group. The present study tried to discuss on the problem Macrobenthic fauna of Limha Pond, Ghutku Bilaspur and observed quantitative algal and faunal diversity i.e. phytoplankton (34 species), aquatic organism (6 species) Bacillariophyceae (8 species), Chlorophyceae (11 species), Euglenophyceae (6 species), Zooplankton (20 species), and Fish species (16 species). Present study revealed that Cyprinidae (carps) were the dominant fish and Catla was a major contributor among carps. The following species Catla catla, Labeo rohita, Cirrhinus mrigala, Labeo calbasu, Barbus tor and Cirrhinus reba etc. were noted in Limha pond, Ghutku, Bilaspur.
Highlights
The phytoplankton forms a very important component of the aquatic vegetation, occurring in all kinds of water bodies and enjoying a worldwide distribution
The present study was done to discuss the diversity of macrobenthic fauna and algal groups/flora of Limha Pond, Ghutku Bilaspur
The fishes of the Limha pond were collected at monthly interval with the help of local fishermen at all the five sampling stations The fishes collected from the pond were kept in 8% formalin for 48 hrs
Summary
The phytoplankton forms a very important component of the aquatic vegetation, occurring in all kinds of water bodies and enjoying a worldwide distribution. Macro benthic organisms form an important aspect of benthic studies in various fresh water ecosystems as they serve as. (2014) Diversity in Macrobenthic & Algal Fauna of Limha Pond, Ghutku Bilaspur India. Zooplankton communities have been investigated in numerous reservoirs, lakes, and shallow algal blooms [3] [4]. A few studies have been done on fish population dynamics, icthyo diversity and conservation of fishes in Lake Ecosystem in central and north east India [5]. An aquatic problem in Lentic community, biological productivity of the fresh water ecosystem was studied by [10]. The present study was done to discuss the diversity of macrobenthic fauna and algal groups/flora of Limha Pond, Ghutku Bilaspur
