Abstract

The diversity and distribution of tintinnids in Chilika Lagoon has been studied with description of new records. The study revealed presence of 27 species belonging to eight genera and five families of which, 26 species are new records from the lagoon. The distribution pattern of tintinnids in the lagoon showed their presence along the central sector, southern sector and outer channel, except the northern sector of the lagoon. The distribution pattern in the lagoon indicated their existence along low saline areas, despite being mostly marine in habit.
