Title

DENSITY, DIVERSITY AND SPECIES RICHNESS OF WATERBIRDS IN PERIYAKULAM LAKE, TIRUCHIRAPPALLI, TAMIL NADU, SOUTHERN INDIA.

Abstract

Abstract Objectives: To collected data on the population characteristics of waterbirds. Methods: The data were collected from January 2011 to December 2013. Birds were counted using direct count method. counting a suitable vantage point was selected and all visible birds were counted. This method was very useful for counting the water birds. Findings: During the study period the waterbirds belonged to 37 species and 31 genus, included under 14 families and 7 orders were recorded. Among the 37 species, 5 species were migratory, 17 species were resident and 15 species were resident migratory. Among them 5 species are categorized as Near Threatened and the remaining 32 species are Least Consent as per the IUCN categories, (2020). This is the first kind of works in this study area. These results are viable and the contributions have been made for evolving strategies in relation to management of inland wetland habitats. Novelty and applications: The highest bird density was recorded during the year 2013 (961.3±194.66 No/ha.) and lowest during the year 2011 (329.9±43.15 No./ha.). Diversity of waterbirds showed maximum during the year 2013 and lowest during the year 2011, which were 0.03±0.004 and 0.02±0.002 respectively. The richness of the waterbird species were also showed highest value during the year 2013 and lowest species richness during the year 2011, which were 23.2±1.27 and 14.7±0.68 respectively. The density, diversity and waterbird species richness showed significant variations among the years (P<0.05).
