Gadchiroli is a tribal area & located on the eastern side of Maharashtra and is the central part of India. Various studies on zooplankton have been done from respective lentic & lotic ecosystems present here. According to studies, Zooplankton population size was correlated with biotic and abiotic parameters. Traditional morphology-based methods have been used to investigate the interaction between the biodiversity of zooplankton and aquatic pollution in freshwater ecosystems as some species are denoted as pollution indicator species. In the mentioned checklist, there are a total of 132 species of zooplanktons there are, out of which 66 belong to Rotifer, 35 to Cladocera, 11 to Copepoda, 5 from Ostracoda, and 9 taxa from Protozoan. Many of the studies showed that Rotifers are dominating the zooplanktonic population followed by Cladocera and Copepoda. The objective of the study is to review the distribution and diversity of zooplankton with the help of available literature up till now. The review study is very much helpful to study the diversity, seasonal variation, and dynamics of zooplankton concerning the eutrophication of the lentic and lotic ecosystems.
