Abstract: The primary focus of this research is to examine the biodiversity of phytoplankton as well as the physical and chemical attributes of the Beehar River during the post-monsoon period. Water samples and phytoplankton were collected in the morning using a plankton net with a mesh size of 20 µm. Within the study area, a total of forty-three distinct genera of phytoplankton were identified, categorized into Chlorophyceae, Bacillariophyceae, Cyanophyceae, and Euglenophyceae. The investigation also encompassed an analysis of various physico-chemical factors such as temperature, pH levels, dissolved oxygen, carbon dioxide, alkalinity, calcium content, water hardness, nitrate and silicate concentrations, and productivity. The findings demonstrated noticeable disparities in phytoplankton diversity and physico-chemical parameters among different sampling locations.
