Abstract

Abstract

In order to investigate the structure of zooplankton community in Pengxi River basin, Yunyang County, Chongqing and clarify its correlation with saline-alkali of the water body, a study on zooplankton biodiversity was carried out in June 2023. The results showed that 31 species of zooplankton belonging to 4 classes were collected, including 22 species of Cladocera, 4 species of Rotifer, 3 species of Copepod, 1 species of insect, and 1 species of Oligochaeta. The total density was 70.8 ind./L to 270 ind./L, and the total biomass was 1.13 mg/L to 4.02 mg/L; among which Cladocera was the most abundant, and the level of species diversity was significantly higher than that of other species. The Shannon-Wiener diversity index and Pielou evenness index of zooplankton ranged from 0.919 to 2.335, and 0.300 to 0.780, respectively. 7 dominant species were found, among which Cyclops, Harpacticoida, and Daphnia vulgaris were similar in habitat selection and had higher niche overlap. The results of correlation analysis showed that total salinity, total alkalinity, and total phosphorus were the main environmental factors affecting the changes in zooplankton community structure. To some extent, the nutrients of water might mitigate the alkalinity and salinity constraints for some zooplankton. Therefore, controlling the input of salt pollutants in the basin was crucial to maintaining the stability of the zooplankton community structure in the basin.
