Abstract

Amarja Reservoir is the historical reservoir situated in Kalaburagi district. Zooplankton plays an important role in aquatic ecosystem serve as a major component of food chain. It maintain proper equilibrium between biotic and abiotic components of the aquatic ecosystem. The present investigation deals with study of diversity zooplankton of Amarja reservoir. The work was carried out for the period of one year i.e., December 2014 to November 2015. The zooplankton of Amarja reservoir water is represented by five different groups like Protozoa, Rotifera, Cladocera, Copepoda, Ostracods with 19 different species were identified and recorded in Amarja Reservoir, Rotifer were dominant among zooplanktons.
