Abstract
Present investigation has been conducted on Mongra Bairaj of Chhattisgarh with special references to its zooplankton diversity.18 zooplanktion species were identified from Mongra Bairaj which consisted of Protozoa 9 species (50%), Copepoda 5 species (28%) and Rotifera 4 species (22%). Among all the zooplanktion group, Protozoa recorded dominance. Maximum diversity of zooplanktion population was recorded at station 4 village Salhe in summer season.
