Fish Species Diversity of Benisagar Dam, Turki, Satna (M.P.) India

Abstract

The study was conducted during 2013 to 2014. The study revealed that different regions of the dam receive variable precipitation and hence meteorological factors governing the physico-chemical properties of the dam which in turn influence planktonic diversity and so that all the physico-chemical and biological factors have direct influence on the fish production. From the present study, it observed that all the physico-chemical parameters are at nearly permissible limit at all the 5 identified stations. It is estimated that the fish fauna of Benisagar dam consists of 31 species belonging to 11 families. Among the collections 4 species of Clupeiformes, order Cypriniformes consists of 20 species, order Beloniformes consists of 3 species, Perciformes consists of 03 species and order Mugilidae consists of one species. Therefore, it is suggested that the immediate measures may be taken to avoid further contamination of this dam which has been started contaminated due to anthropological activities. Finally it may be concluded that the Benisagar dam is rich in fish diversity and is still in a position to set a good example of conservation of native fish fauna by the sustainable management practices.
