The main aim of the study was to provide the data essential for the planning, implementation and evaluation of the services to the prevention, control and treatment of lymphatic filariasis. Questionnaire survey was conducted for the collection of information of the respondents. Blood samples were collected by means of ear-lobe prick method. Microscopical examination of the collected blood samples revealed 117 positive cases i.e. 22.67%. Males (24.54%) were found to be infected more than females (21.28%) in the ration of 1.2:1. The highest distribution of microfilarial parasites was in the age group >70 years (36.36%) while the least was in the age group ≤10 years (12.37%). The infected youngest person was 4 years old boy and the oldest was 85 years old man. Endemicity rate and crude disease rate was reported to be 44.76% and 22.09% respectively. Illiteracy, lack of awareness about the disease, poor sanitation, carelessness in using bed-nets and health were identified as the major risk factors for filariasis. J. Nat. Hist. Mus.

It is the pioneer work to explore the above mentioned riverine flora. Altogether 28 genera belonging to 19 families and 5 classes were recorded during the investigation period. There was a decrease in taxa richness from upstream site (19 genera) to the urban site (9 genera) and an increasing trend to the downstream site (15 genera). Myxophyceae, bacillariophyceae and chlorophyceae comprising 10, 9 and 6 genera respectively were predominant classes among the phytoplankton communities. Oscillatoriaceae and nostocaceae; fragilariaceae and achnanthaceae; and zygnemataceae were dominant families among myxophyceae, bacillariophyceae and chlorophyceae respectively. The dominant genera were, Microcystis Kutzing, Oscillatoria Vaucher and Anabaena Bory; Tabellaria Ehrenberg, Achnanthes Bory and Cymbella Agardh; Ulothrix Kutzing and Spirogyra Link; and Peridinium Ehrenberg among myxophyceae, bacillariophyceae, chlorophyceae and dinophyceae respectively. The genera found at all sites were, Tabellaria Ehrenberg, Achnanthes Bory and Cymbella Agardh; and Microcystis Kutzing, Anabaena Bory, Oscillatoria Vaucher and Schizothrix Kutzing among bacillariophyceae and myxophyceae, where as, those occurred only at Site 2 were, Chlamydomonas Ehrenberg, Oedogonium Link, Scenedesmus Meyen and Zygnema Agardh; Euglena Ehrenberg; Fragilaria Lyngbye; Gymnodinium Stein; and Merismopedia Meyne among chlorophyceae, euglinophyceae, bacillariophyceae, dinophyceae and myxophyceae respectively. The decline in taxa richness at the urban site reflects the perturbation of the riverine environment due to urbanization which needs regular monitoring and essential measures to control further deterioration J.

Biological diversity of this species is being threatened by various anthropogenic activities. In view of the conservational value and the aquaculture potential of T. putitora , significant development in artificial propagation of this species has been achieved. The successful hatchery production of T. putitora brought to the forefront problematic questions regarding genetic variation of the hatchery stocks. A study was, therefore, conducted to determine the genetic variability within and between hatchery stocks and their wild counterparts of T. putitora using allozyme markers. Analyses of seven enzyme systems resuled in 11 loci being resolved from lake population and two consecutive generations of hatchery populations of T. putitora . Based on five polymorphic loci, all populations had percentage polymorphic loci 45.45. Significant reduction (P 0.05), observed heterozygosity increased in first generation of hatchery population (H o = 0.181 ±0.233) compared to natural population (H o =0.179±0.221). The H o of second generation of hatchery population was lowest (0.119 ±0.143) among the populations studied. Loss of rare alleles from the two generations of hatchery population, while these alleles were present in corresponding natural populations suggested the founders (20-30 individuals) of the hatchery populations probably represented bottlenecks to very small effective population size ( N e ).
