Abstract
The present ecological investigation was conducted for detailed study of phytosociology and diversity analysis of macrophytes inhabiting Shibnagar beel and Sonamati beel of Islampur, North Dinajpur district. A total of 12 macrophyte species belonging to 11 families were reported. Hierarchial cluster analysis represented the relationship among all the species along with the vegetational distinguishes among the different sites. Simpson Dominance index, Shannon and Weiner diversity index and Pielous evenness index were also computed to understand the overall diversity status of the concerned wetlands. The present research revealed that Sonamati beel possess higher species diversity and richness with dynamic ecosystem.
