Abstract
The community structure of zooplankton was studied in relation to physico‐chemical characteristics of the river Chambal polluted by industrial effluents and domestic sewage near Nagda. Thirtytwo species of zooplankton of five main groups, viz. Protozoa, Rotifera, Cladocera, Copepoda and Ostracoda were observed at pre‐pollution sampling stations. The abundance, distribution, total population, group percentage and species diversity were studied and correlated with pollution‐indicating parameters. Species diversity values indicated a decrease from the sampling station near a pre‐effluent point to an effluent discharge channel and an increase at a post‐effluent discharge point revealing a slight recovery zone. Keratella tropica and Kellicottia sp. were identified as pollution tolerant taxa.
