The raptorial birds are classified into three orders, all of which evolved independently. Diurnal raptors such as ospreys, vultures, eagles, and hawks belong to the Order Accipitriformes, while other diurnal raptors such as falcons and caracaras belong to the Order Falconiformes. Nocturnal raptors or owls belong to the Order Strigiformes.Full Text

The streams and rivers of the Western Ghats is a prominent landscape feature of the peninsular India. The Western Ghats is the catchment for 3 large, 13 medium and 17 minor rivers of the peninsular India (Rao, 1975). These 33 rivers and associated wetlands harbour high diversity of freshwater organisms. These streams, rivers and associated wetlands of the region are one of freshwater biodiversity hotspots of the world (World Conservation Monitoring Centre, 2000).Full Text

Water birds have been defined as “species of bird that are ecologically dependent on wetlands”. This is the definition used by the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands. Avian fauna occupies a significant position in an aquatic ecosystem. Birds are a diverse group, and their bright colours, distinct songs and calls, and showy displays add enjoyment to our lives. They not only have an aesthetic role but also occupy a very important position in food chain. India has about 243 species of water birds and species of wetlands dependent and associated birds (Kumar et al., 2005). It has been observed that almost half of these birds are migratory and come to the subcontinent from their breeding grounds in northern latitude of Russia, China, Central Asian countries, Mongolia and Persian gulf.Full Text

The aquatic and semi-aquatic Heteroptera under the Infraorder Nepomorpha and Gerromorpha are distributed in almost all kinds of ecological niches with diverse climatic conditions, including both marine and freshwater habitats. They are the important components of freshwater ecosystem as they play a major role in the food web of this particular ecosystem. Globally, among the 17 major families of aquatic Heteroptera, 16 families comprising of 79 genera and 292 species are represented in India.Full Text

The genus Agriocnemis Selys, 1869 consists of some of the smallest odonates in the world distributed throughout the tropical zones of Africa to Australia and Oceania. The genus is essentially an Oriental one, with bulk of the species coming from southern Asia. Currently, there are 42 species recognized under this genus (Schorr & Paulson, 2014).Full Text
