Abstract

Studies were conducted on the Ichthyofaunal diversity of Erracheruvu in Siddipet District of Telangana State for a period of three years - from June 2015 to May 2018. Four distinctive locations were selected for the study. Fish belonging to 29 species, 19 genera, 6 orders, and 12 families were recorded in this study. Of the 13 recorded species, Order Cypriniformes was the most dominant among the 6 orders followed by Order Siluriformes with 7 species. Of the recorded species 4 represent Order Perciformes and 3 represent Channiformes. Order Osteoglossiformes and Order Antherniformes were represented by single species each.
