Abstract
Lonar Crater Lake is located in Buldana district, Maharashtra state India. Geographical appearance of Crater Lake is 19o58’N and 76o31’E. Lake is oval; bowl or circular gloominess shape, and it have no any outlet. Geomorphometric status of Crater Lake is included in to five major zones these are, Ejecta-blanket, Rim, Escarpment or Slope, Alluvium and Lake Basin proper. The crater have much more diverse vegetation and it support microbial flora and fauna.
