Abstract: Fifteen Taxa representing 7 species of the Chara, 2 species of Ntella, and 1 species of lamprothaminum succinctum and Nitellopsis obtusa have been identified and described from fresh water lakes and ponds. It was noted that the species of chara are indicator of the presence of fish. These species were observed within pH 7.8 to 8.5 and total dissolved solids 260-580 mg/l. Chara globularis f.connivens R.D.W was present in kinjhar lake, while Nitellopsis obtusa was commonly found in kinjhar lake(Distt. Thatta) and Bakar lake (Distt Sanghar) at the depth of 3 - 20 feet.
