Journal Title: International Journal of Biological Innovations - Year 2019, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Aim of the present piece of work was to analyze the diversity of insect fauna of Guthia Taal, a wetland of district Bahraich of Uttar Pradesh (India). During the present study, a total of 32 species of aquatic insects belonging to 5 orders and 24 families were recorded from the three sampling sites from the study area. The study of population of insects in different sites revealed the fact that the population of aquatic insects was governed by both abiotic and biotic factors. The result of the present study reveals a great diversity of aquatic insects in freshwater bodies of Guthia taal and suggests a strong possibility of using insects effectively for biomonitoring programmes.
