Abstract
The present study examines the diversity and
distribution of aquatic insects in the wetland ecosystem of Sitadwar Jheel,
located in the Shravasti District, over a period from March 2024 to August
2024. A total of seven insect orders were identified: Hemiptera, Coleoptera,
Odonata, Diptera, Ephemeroptera, Lepidoptera, and Trichoptera. Among
these, Hemiptera constituted the largest population (31.94%) in the
wetland ecosystem, followed by Coleoptera (25.13%), Odonata
(18.58%), Diptera (10.21%), Ephemeroptera (7.07%), Lepidoptera
(4.71%), and Trichoptera (2.36%). Diversity indices were also calculated
to assess species distribution. The dominance of Hemiptera, Coleoptera,
and Odonata suggests that the Sitadwar Jheel is relatively less
polluted.
