Abstract: Gondia district is a very famous district in Maharashtra. This district is situated in the central part of India and in the eastern part of Maharashtra, specifically in Vidarbha, and is known as the district of lakes. The state has two states on its border. Gondia is a major market. Various agricultural products are produced in Gondia, which are exported to Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh. Since the Gondia district is a district of lakes, this research was conducted to assess the biodiversity of fish in this area. This research has found ichthyofauna in a specific ecosystem where very few known fish species have been studied. This study is related to the ichthyofauna diversity of the proposed site during the years 2022-2024. In this part of this study, 24 fish species belonging to 5 Order and 11 families were observed. My research work is on the physico-chemical analysis of Managad Dam. The primary objective of the study was to investigate the species composition of freshwater fish in Salekasa, Gondia District, Maharashtra.

Key Words: Ichthyofaunal Diversity, Freshwater, Managad Dam, Tahshil Salekasa.
