Abstract

The present paper is an attempt to present the hydrobiological observation  on Virla reservoir of Khargone district. The   data  revealed  that   5   major  algal  groups  i.e.    Cyanophyceae,    Bacillariophyceae,    Chlorophyceae, Euglenophyceae  and Chrysophyceae  are present in Virla reservoirs.
