The present paper deals with two genera(Ulva clathrata and Chlorella vulgaris ) of algae among which one genus ( Ulva clathrata )was first time isolated and reported from this confluence region of these three rivers mentioned above. Keywords: Algal species; convergence; damoder; rupnarayan; microflora. 1.

Algal samples were preserved in 4 % formaldehyde (Mason, 1967).The samples were washed carefully to remove dust particles and then were preserved in 3 % formalin solution in small glass bottles, numbered and labeled according to their habitat. Then these samples were brought in the Environmental Microbiology Research Laboratory, Department of Botany, University of Kalyani, West Bengal, India. One drop from each sample was taken with the help of small pipette on the slide and covered with cover slip, under the light microscope BH-2 Olympus, made in Fig. 1.Ulva clathrate (Roth) Grev Japan.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The recent study of the occurrence of two algal species in the point of convergence of the Damoder, Rupnarayan and Hooghly rivers near Gadiara, West Bengal, India. The taxonomic study for two algal species was conducted on the basis of their morphological as well as cytological features for identification up to species level.
