Limnological Study On Microalgal Flora Of Nakane Lake Of Dhule District Of Maharashtra, India

 Abstract: 


Algae Play vital role in aquatic ecosystems by forming the energy base of the food web for all aquatic organisms. Thepresent study with relation to Potential of Cyanophyceae, Chlorophyceae, Bacillariophyceae, Euglenineae, classes of algae carried out for Nakane Lake of Dhule district. In Maharashtra very few workers have paid attention on limnological aspects of algae from lotic & lentic water habitat. These studies of Nakane Lake were carried out during December 2020 to November 2021. Geographically Nakane Lake is located at latitude 20°53'9" N and longitude 74°43'3" E. Dhule are rich in lentic water Systems Supporting a rich algal flora.
