River Sindphana which is tributary of River Godavari, in Beed District (Maharashtra, India) in 1987. Which falls 16° 16 N latitude and longitude 73° 26 E. The River Sindphana has been under constant threat of pollution by sewage and industrial wastes, disposal of dead bodies, deforestration, excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides, bathing and water development programmes. The dam reservoir has a catchment area is 3840 sq. km. It is of great Importance for the region because its water is used for human and cattle consumption, It is multipurpose type like irrigation and power production (Hydro Electric Project). As a representative of these ‘Majalgaon Dam reservoir’ was selected for the limnology studies. The present study is aimed to investigate some of the important physical and chemical parameters along with the flora and fauna of the reservoir. A total of 31 species of Phytoplanktons, 25 species of Zooplanktons and . The reservoir is very productive. There are several types of fresh water fishes present in the dam. Labeo rohita, Cirrhina mrigal, Catla catla, Cyprinus carpio, Silver carp, Wallago attu, Mystancenbelus armatus, Notopterus chital, Barbus ticto, Channa staitus, Mystus seenghala, Mystus cavassius, Eutroplus suratensis, Belon concila, Chela, Tilapia mosambica, Rohtee alfrediana, Gobius giuris etc.19 species of fishes were identified during June2017-May2018.Hence the present work is an attempt to accumulate information pertaining to various aspect of hydrobiology of standing water bodies from this part of peninsular India. The most important factor that influence the utilization and development of the fishery resources in the Socio-economic condition of the fisherman.. This caused them to depend upon middle man for the marketing of their producer and naturally the major portion of the profit goes in the pocket of middle man.The fisherman do not have their own net, for it they depend upon the other fisherman and in return they give a good portion of their income as hire of the net. The net income of the fisherman is insufficient for his maintenance and of his family.
