The plankton were collected counted and were identified by using the method suggested by APHA (1995) Present (1970) and FRESH WATER BIOLOGY (W. T. EDMONDSON-1959). The plankton were counted by using Sedwick Rafter counting cell. Different class such cyanphyceae, chlorophyceae, bacillariophyceae, euglenophyceae, cilliata, cledocera, copepod and specimens from phylum rotifera were identified during the study. Among all these classes the listed phytoplankton such as Oscillatoria Sp. , Tetraedron Sp. , Navicula Sp. , Nitzschia Sp. , Euglena Sp. , and zooplankton such as Ceriodaphnia Sp. , Cyclops Sp. , Tropocyclops Sp. , Brachionus Sp. and Platias Sp. were recorded as a dominant genera in Pariyat Lake.
