A study of zooplankton in shivnath river at madku dweep district mungeli (c.g.)

In this study, we compared the species composition respectively diversity of planktonic (Protozoa, Rotifera, Copepoda, Cladocera) inShivnath River water. Investigation was carried out formDecember-2016 to December-2017. Diversity of zooplankton tender to be the highest in River (r= +0.988) and the lowest (r= -0.746). The relatively high species number despite of zooplankton supported by river. Shivnath River water body seems to contribute considerably higher total abundance of zooplankton in the other two types of ecosystem.
