Yogendra Kumar

Abstract

Present work was carried out to investigate the diversity and distribution of phytoplankton in the River Hiran. Samples were collected from five sampling stations, namely Kimdeshwar, Khitoula, Ghat Simariya, Khinni and Hirapur for two consective years. A total of 66 species of phytoplanktons were collected from the Hiran river. The greatest phytoplankton density from 830.4 to 4549.9 org/l was found at site S-1, while the least phytoplanktonic density 138.4 to 588.2 org/1 was reported at stations S-5. The phytoplankton represented in greatest number of Cyanophyceae and the least density of Dinophyceae. The phytoplankton represented in the order of Cyanophyceae > Bacillariophyceae > Chlorophyceae > Dinophyceae. ABSTRACT
