The current study was carried out to isolate,identify and characterized fresh water green algae species from ecologically diverse habitats of Tehsil Gujar Khan, District Rawalpindi. A microscopic image data was used to identify algal species. A total of 30 species were recorded that belonged to 4 orders, 11 families, and 14 genera. Clamydomonas reinardtii, Acutodesmus obliquus and Cosmarium isthmocondrum are new record from Pakistan. Among identified taxa, Scenedesmus was the dominant genus with 8 species and their contribution was 26.6%. The 2 nd most dominant genus was Cosmarium with 6 species and their contribution was 20%. The other genera Chlorococcum, Ankistrodesmus, Coelastrum, and Closterium were (6.6%). Some genera represented only one (3.3%) species that were Chlamydomonas, Eudorina, Tetraspora, Chlorella, Westella, Pediastrum, Acutodesmus, and Stigeoclonium. Hence, the current study reveals that Gujar Khan, District Rawalpindi is a rich source of green algae and an ideal place for their cultivation.
