Fortnightly records of the biotic and abiotic conditions in a subtropical natural pond were made over a period of 14 months with a view to find out the abiotic causes of fluctuations in the zooplanktonic populations. Statistical analysis of simple correlations among the abiotic factors revealed dire

Introduction
Previous studies on seasonal succession, diurnal variations, chemical conditions, bottom communities and morphometry and depth have been made in temperate freshwaters (ATKINS,

1. Macrophyte and macroinvertebrate species richness, and the extent of aquatic vegetation, were surveyed in 51 newly created or renovated ponds in mid and west Wales, together with a range of environmental variables. These data are analysed in relation to management issues including pond size, rate
The studies on the ecology of Indian freshwaters have been very few . Some valuable work has however been done in recent years on smaller freshwater bodies by IYENGAR (1940), GONZALVES & JOSHI (1946), GANAPATHI , PHILIPOSE (1960), ZAFAR (1959 ' 67), SINGH (1960), GEORGE (1962 '66), SITHARAMAIAH (196
In the two earlier communications (SEENAYYA, 1971) physicochemical complexes of three freshwater ponds and the ecology of Volvocales, Chlorococcales, Desmids and Euglenineae of these waters were discussed . This article presents the ecological behaviour of diatoms and blue-green algae in those bodie
