Abstract: This study was carried out in Bogibeel, a stretch of river Brahmaputra from January 2015 to December 2016. A total, 40 species belonging to 16 families have been recorded from six different fish landing zone during the study period. It has been found that the fish diversity of these hotspots faces serious threats which would lead to a catastrophic loss of our biodiversity. In this work an attempt has been done to inventorize the fish community dwelling in the wetland, analysis of the anthropogenic threats and the prospect of aqua ecotourism is a mega conservatory tool to maintain ecological integrity of these aqua landscapes as well as the dwindling fish fauna.
