Seasonal Variation and Regional Abundance of Wetland Avian Fauna of Urinji Kulam Pond in Thiruthangal, Viruthunagar District
Abstract: Wetlands are plays a vital role in the ecosystem. It provides good shelter for many animals such as, birds, mammals, fishes, insects, etc. It is also maintaining the biodiversity of flora and fauna. Birds are the most important indicators of the ecosystem. Hence, the present study has been carried out to assess the wetland birds in Thiruthangal from July 2012 to June 2013. During the study period 32 species of …

Studies on Zooplankton Diversity of Manar Reservoir with Selected Physico-Chemical Parameters, Maharashtra
Abstract: Freshwater reservoirs in India are increasingly exposed to anthropogenic pressures, such as agricultural runoff, domestic sewage discharge, and water level fluctuations, which significantly influence nutrient dynamics and aquatic ecosystem stability. Biomonitoring using plankton communities provides an effective approach for evaluating ecological health, as these organisms respond rapidly to changes in physico-chemical conditions. The present investigation was carried out to assess the environmental status and trophic condition of Manar Reservoir, located …

Seasonal Diversity of Copepods in Relation with Physico-Chemical Status of Kolar River, Saoner, Dist. Nagpur (Maharashtra State), India
Abstract: The present study is focused on the seasonal variations of copepods in relations with the physic-chemical parameters of Kolar River Seasonal changes in physic-chemical parameters such as water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen and inorganic contents were studied month wise from June 2011 to May 2012. Studies showed the seasonal fluctuations in water temperature (20.2◦c to 27.3◦c), conductivity (277μS/cm to 401μS/cm), pH (7.6 to 8.5), total alkalinity (146 mg/l to 186 …

Host Plant Affinity and Trophic Behavior of Lohita grandis name of author (Hemiptera: Largidae)
Abstract: Lohita grandis (Gray) , commonly known as the red cotton bug, is an emerging pest of cotton and several other economically important crops in India. Its sap-sucking feeding habit causes discoloration of fruits, reduction in seed quality, and yield losses, posing serious challenges to sustainable agriculture. The present study investigates the feeding behaviour and host plant preferences of L. grandis across diverse agroclimatic zones of India, with the aim of …
