Abstract

The present study on fish diversity from Manawar Tawi, Rajouri (J&K) was carried out for the period of three months from September 2023 to November 2023. Fishes are very important from biodiversity point of view. Therefore, during the present survey, total six fish species belonging to five genera and two families were collected and identified in this region. Also the distribution of different chromatophores was studied in the fish Labeo boga. This study emphasizes the importance of conducting regular surveys in order to analyse the impact of anthropogenic activities on the fish diversity and impact of pollution on the distribution of chromatophores.
