Abstract: The fish fauna of the Krishna River, Karnataka in relation to physicochemical parameters was studied from September 2023 to January 2024. The water of the River is used for fishery and agriculture. Fish species were collected with the help of gillnets of standardized dimensions with several mesh sizes. A total of 14 fish fauna belonging to 03 orders and o4 families were recorded. Among fish families Cyprinidae consists of 11 species and Channidae, Ambassidae ,Clarridae with 01 species each respectively. The maximum species contribution was made by family Cyprinidae. The limnological parameters indicate the higher trophic status of the pond which can be attributed to anthropogenic pressure.
