Abstract: The Phytoplankton’s are playing a important role in aquatic ecosystems they are primarily producers in aquatic food chain. The Phytoplankton assumes a great ecological significance in aquatic ecosystem. The present study of planktons collected from water samples, preserved and brought to laboratory for the study. The water samples were observed under the microscope to ascertain the species of phytoplankton’s and the checklist have been prepared. Plankton net: Water from selected sampling sites filtered by the help of plankton net (mesh size 25 to 50 μm) for the study of phytoplankton from the study area. Sampling bottles: Water samples from the field were collected and brought to laboratories in sampling bottles for the assessment of micro flora.
