Abstract

Diversity and its Indices in Zooplankton with Physico-Chemical Properties of Mula Dam Water Ahmednagar, Maharashtra, India

A J Dhembare

In the present investigation five diversity indices as Shannon-Weaver diversity index, Simpson’s diversity index, Index of Dominance, Index of Evenness & Species richness were evaluated in zooplankton from Mula dam. A total of 23 species of zooplankton belonging protozoa, rotifer, cladocera, copepoda & decapoda were recorded. It showed seasonal variation & density as summer > winter> rainy. They were in order: rotifer (46%), cladocera (17%), copepoda (16%), decapoda (13%), & protozoan (8%). The water samples were analyzed for various parameters.
