They play an important role in providing food to fishes and other aquatic animals, provide shelter to algae and some animals and also play role in cycling the nutrients in the water bodies. There is no data available, on aquatic macrophytes present in this tribal district of Maharashtra, so that it was decided to study macrophytes at length. The lakes selected for the study are perennial and situated in rural areas except Gadchiroli lake. The study period for the present data is November 2003 to October 2005. | | Keywords : | | - lentic waterbody and Gadchiroli,
