Notes
Three species of the family Chaetonotidae, C. anomalus, C. formosus, C. similis have been described of which the first two species are being reported for the first time from India. It is found that aquatic medium with plats as Spirogyra, Hydrilla and Utricularia, is favourable for the species. Further, from the table showing Physico-chemical properties of the localities, it is provisionally concluded that C. anomalus thrives favourably in water which is relatively more alkaline.
