Abstract

Ten ponds in coal mining city Dhanbad were selected for this study to calculate the Boyd’s diversity index for algae in summer season and a total of 36 species were recorded. To elucidate the community structure in each pond, Boyd’s index was calculated. The diversity index of Boyd’s indicates the pollution index of different ponds in coal mining city Dhanbad affected by different sources. In ten ponds the indices do not go hand in hand indicating higher diversity with higher pollution level. Algal biodiversity indices can be used in detecting the level of pollution in ponds.
