      abstract = {A survey was carried out from February 2014 to March 2016. Water samples were collected in a monthly interval. . Biodiversity  indices like Shannon?s diversity index, Pielou?s  evenness index, Simpson?s dominance index and Margalef?s species richness index were calculated. A total of  16 zooplankton genera were recorded composed of  Protozoa with 4 genera, Rotifer with 5 genera, Cladocera  with 4 genera and copepod with 3 genera from the river Torsa. Rotifer was most dominant group (31%) and copepod was least dominant group(19%). Density (org./L), number of  organism (S), species diversity index(H?)  and Margalef?s species  richness Index (R) of zooplankton were recorded maximum in winter season and minimum in monsoon season at all sites.},
