Abstract

Zooplankton populations of Sona Dighi were remarkable. In all 31 genera and 45 species represented by five major groups have been reported from Sona Dighi, Rajshahi based on a year investigation. The recorded groups were as follows as Protozoa (5 genera, 4 species), Rotifera (7 genera, 11 species), Cladocera (6 genera, 8 species), Ostracoda (4 genera, 6 species) and Copepoda (9 genera, 15 species).Physical chemical characteristics and zooplankton diversity of the reservoir indicates its eutrophic nature.

Key words: Zooplankton, Sona Dighi, Rajshahi, Bangladesh.
