Seasonally species were counted and identified from the wetland during consecutive three years (2013-2016). Family Poaceae shows the highest distribution in the wetland. Agglomerative hierarchical clustering (AHC) analysis represents the relationship among all species and heterogeneity of dominance of species was noticed throughout the study area. Non metric multidimentional scaling (NMDS) represents relative differences of the macrophytes. According to our study it was revealed that Lalbandh possess a higher diversity of macrophytes which contain a stable ecosystem in this wetland.
