Abstract

The present study focused on cyanophitic diversity of Munshi Hussain Tank. In this study an attempt has been made to identify the taxa of Cyanophyta in Premonsoon, monsoon, summer and Post monsoon seasons i.e. from July 2007 to June 2009. A total of 61 species of cyanophyta were observed during the course of study. Oscillatoria, Microcystis and chlorococcus were found as dominant genera.
