This study was aimed to study the diversity of aquatic insects and physicochemical factors of water in pond of Karwar, India. The aquatic insects were collected using insects net from the study area during June 2009 to May 2010. 15 species belonging to 6 orders were found, with the highest number of aquatic insects from the order Hemiptera. The most abundant order was Coleoptera which were very commonly found during the study period. Physicochemical values of water, air temperature, pH, DO, DO, CO2, TA, Cl2, PO4 and NH4 were measured.
