It refers to all the variety of life that can befound on earth (plants, animals, fungi and Micro –organism) as well as to the communities that they form habitats in whichthey live. Biodiversity is not only the sum of all ecosystem, species and genetic material. Rather, it represents the variabilitywithin and among them. Zooplankton constitutes a vital link in the food chain of an ecosystem and fish yield is to a greatextent depending on their abundance. The abundance of Zooplankton is more of less governed by the interaction of numberof Physical, Chemical and biological processes. The present investigation was undertaken to study the biodiversity ofZooplankton in “Barwani tank” of West Nimar, M.P. A total 23 species belonging to four groups have been identified.Protozoa 8 species, Rotifers 6 species, copepods 5 species and cladocers 4 species contributed to Zooplankton in theBarwani tank. Zooplankton diversity of this tank is higher in comparison to running water body link river Narmada. Whereonly 21 genera of Zooplankton occur.<#LINE#>@@Goswami S.C., Zooplankton: Food for fishes, In know ourshores: Goa, (Ed: A. G.

Fish diversity of any regime has great significance in assessment of that zone reference to environment andpollution, as well as contributes to the necessary information for fisheries. Several fishes are considered bio-indicators also.River Mahisagar is one of the major perennial westward flowing rivers of Gujarat State. This river receives tremendous loadof pollution in its middle and downstream zones, also highly influenced by tidal inflow from Gulf of Cambay. Here in thisstudy an attempt was made to document fish diversity of downstream zone of this river in post monsoon season. Total 26bony fishes from various families were recorded.<#LINE#>Kumar Niraj@Study of Ichthyofaunal Biodiversity of TurkauliaLake@East-Champaran, Bihar, India, I. Res. J.

Conservation is the only way that presently exists to save the biodiversity. The fish diversity in theMahanadi River is in no way exceptional from the current impact of global warming and climate change. Althoughsubstantial study on fish diversity of the Mahanadi has been undertaken, classifying the existing diversity of fish species inthe Mahanadi River into ornamental fishes is an untouched area. It is observed from the information and earlier works doneon the fish diversity in the Mahanadi River that a significant number of fish species having potential ornamental propertiesare there amongst them.<#LINE#>@@Ministry of Environment and Forest, Government of India,2013, Available at http://envfor.nic.in/modules/rules-andregulations/bio-diversity(2013)@No$Krishnamurthy K.V.,@@Text Book of Biodiversity, SciencePublishers, Inc., Enfield, New Hampshire- 03784, UnitedStates of America (2003)@No$Jayaram K.C.@The freshwater fishes of the Indian Region@Narendra Publishing House, New Delhi (1999)@Yes$Tamboli R.K. and Jha Y.N.@Status of piscine diversity ofriver Mahanadi in Janjgir-Champa District@Int.
