Abstract
The present paper is an attempt to explore the
genera Lepocinclis, Strombomonas, Cyclidiopsis and Colacium and
to make a taxonomical account on it, from different selected wetlands of
Bhagalpur District, Bihar. The algal samples were collected seasonally from the
wetlands located in the sixteen blocks of Bhagalpur district, Bihar. The study
was conducted from December 2020 to June 2022, using the standard methods. This
study revealed presence of 22 species of Euglenoids consisting of 4 genera
namely Strombomonas, Lepocinclis, Cyclidiopsis and Colacium from
wetlands of Bhagalpur district. Among all the species, presence of species like
Strombomonas gibberosa, Strombomonas acuminata, Lepocinclis ovum,
Lepocinclis acus and Lepocinclis texta were found often in wetlands
of district. On the other hand species like Strombomonas schauinslandii,
