Abstract

The paper incorporates the findings on the seasonal abundance and fluctuations of benthic fauna in relation to physico-chemical parameters of water in the selective stretches of river Beas. Considerable variations of benthic fauna in quality and quantity were observed. The population of benthic fauna was high in the month of July (418.0 units/m) while minimum in December (38.0 units/m).
