Quantitative Assessment of Zooplankton of Nilona dam, District, Yavatmal Maharashtra, India
Keywords:
Nilona dam, Zooplankton, Rotifers, Cladocera, Ostracoda, Copepoda.Abstract
Zooplanktons are cosmopolitan in nature and they are found to inhabit all freshwater tropical wetlands. The present investigation deals with the study of the Quantitative Analysis of Zooplankton of Nilona Dam of Yavatmal Taluka in Yavatmal District, Maharashtra, India, The work was carried out for a period of one year from June 2016 to May 2017. During the present study, 36 genera of Zooplankton were recorded Among the recorded genera 10 species of Cladocera, 05 species of Ostracoda 06 species of Copepoda 15 species of Rotifera. Rotifera were the dominant group of Zooplankton recorded allover study. The excessive count of 1877 species was record in the month of May.
