Zusammenfassung:Regular fortnightly zooplankton sample collection was made for two years from November 1993 to October 1995 in the Palk Bay (Station I) and Gulf of Mannar (Station II III) along the south east coast of India. Among the zooplankton sample particularly protozoa diversity were identified. Their primary peak was observed at the middle of summer (Station I) and premonsoon (Station II and III) months. The temperature and salinity and monsoonal factors mostly influenced the occurrence of protozoans, the results are interpreted and probable reasons discussed.
