| description |
An investigation was conducted on the water quality and phytoplanktonic diversity of a pond. During the present study total 20 genera were recorded. The study revealed that highest phytoplanktonic population (1416 units/ ml) was recorded during winter season, whereas the lowest phytoplanktonic population (90 units/ ml} was recorded during monsoon season. Chlorophyceae was found to be a dominating group. The annual percentage of Chlorophyceae, Bacillariophyceae and Cyanophyceae was recorded 58.3 %, 27.6 % and 14.1 % respectively. Among the Chlorophyceae, Cosmarium, Ankistrodesmus, Closterium, Chaetophora and Cladophora were dominating genera. Desmidium, Nitzschia and Cymbella dominated the Bacillariophyceae and Anabena, Oscilatoria and Nostoc dominated the Cynophyceae
