  The choreotrich ciliate tintinnids are key components of microzooplankton as they play a pivotalecological role in transferring pico-and nanoplankton production to higher trophic levels.The studydocuments detailed account of the species composition,abundance and diversity of tintinnids along theGanges River Estuary (GRE),India.A total of 26 species (22 agglomerated and 4 non-agglomerated)belonging to 8 genera has been identified from 8 study sites of diverse environmental stresses of GRE.Tintinnopsis (17 spp) represented the most dominant genera,contributing up to 65% of total tintinnidcommunity followed by Tintinnidium (2 spp),Leprotintinnus (2 spp) and Dadayiella,Favella,Metacylis,Eutintinnus and Helicostomella each with solitary species.
