Abstract

Diversity, distribution, and variation in the biotic parameters provide a good indication of energy turnover in aquatic environments (Forsberg in Hydrobiol 86:143–146, 1982). Within these environments phytoplankton are located at the base level and are represented as a major source of organic carbon (Gaikwad et al. in J Curr Sci 5:749–754, 2004). Species diversity responds to changes in environmental gradients and may characterize many interactions that can establish the intricate pattern of community structure.
