Description :
Earlier workers had attempted to arrange Saprobiontic algae in to different levels. Saprobiontic algal communities are capable of tolerating various degrees of pollution. In the present study three stations of Aner dam & three stations of Aner river were selected for collection of water and algal samples. The saprobity indices for all stations of Aner dam & river were calculated according to Pantle and Buck (1955). In the present study the system of Kolkwitz and Marssons is - mesosaprobic in nature. Saprobity indices hold good for assessing the water quality of Aner dam and river in present study.
