The diversity of species in the ecosystem is directly related to abundance or adaptation, and the presence of plankton in the ecosystem is useful for assessing the state of pollution. An assessment of phytoplankton and zooplankton has been carried out at nine sites of the Sumber Maron River, which will help to understand the biodiversity indicators of the river water. Sediment Samples were taken from the lower river and placed in plastic bags with a volume of about one kg, during the rainy and dry season of 2016, phytoplankton diversity was observed in 13 Genus while the diversity of zooplankton included 10 Genus. Thus the present study gives an indication of the diversity of phytoplankton and zooplankton which can be useful as data to determine the status of water quality of the Sumber Maron River
