Sunita Verma, J. B. Khan
Abstract: The present study deals with the diversity of phytoplankton of BIRLA TALAB of BITS pilani in Jhunjhunu district of Rajasthan. The algal diversity survey revealed the presence of 25 species of algae. Among them chlorophyceae and cyanophyceae are dominant. The investigation shows that these classes of phytoplankton showed considerable fluctuations with water parameters. The climate change and human impact will put increasing pressure upon existing protected areas and that much biodiversity conservation will need to take place beyond these reserves. Conservation of biodiversity is necessary for maintaining ecosystem functioning.
