Abstract

The present investigation deals with the monthlyvariations of Zooplankton in Hanuman sagar of Akola MS. The present investigations carried out during October 2007 to March 2008. The population status of Zooplankton at Hanuman sagar consisted of 48 genera, categorized into three major groups, viz, Rotifera > Cladocera > Copepoda. The Zooplankton noted and reported, 20 species of Rotifera, 12 species of Cladocera and 8 species of Ostracoda and 8 species of Copepoda respectively. From the Present investigations Rotifers found to dominant for the Hanuman sagar freshwater ecosystem.
