Abstract
Diurnal changes in the physico-chemical properties of water and zoopla nkters were recorded in a perennial tank at Dholi (Bihar), India. The variations in the abundance of zooplankters showed a distinct increase towards the surface niche at night hours and reduction at daytime. Th e physico-chemical characteristics of water showed a well marked diurn al fluctuation, but only a very few species of zooplankters were found to be significantly correlated.
