Phytoplankton identification, density and dispersal assessment were conducted from June to October 2005 in Lar Reservoir. Samples were taken by simple plankton net (30 mu m mesh size) and by Ruttner from different depths (0, 5, 10, 20, 30m) and then fixed with formalin 4%. We used inverted microscope in the laboratory to study the samples. We distinguished 34 genera of phytoplanktons consisting of 7 Phyla. Number of genera for Bacillariophyta was 11, for Euglenophyta was 1, for Chlorophyta was 11, for Cyanophyta was 5, for Pyrrophyta was 3, for Cryptophyta 1 and for Chrysophyta was 2. Phylum Bacillariophyta was dominant comprising 82.83% of phytoplankton population annually. Cyclotella, Navicula and Nitzchia were the dominant genera. Phylum Chlorophyta was second in dominance and consisted of Oocystis, Pediastrum, Scenedesmus and Chlorella genera altogether sharing 12.89% of the total phytoplankton frequency. Chrysophyta with genera Dinobryon and Malomonas had a frequency of 2.21%, Cyanophyta with Genera Anabaena, Oscillatoria and Gleocapsa comprised 1.32% of the total frequency, Pyrrophyta with genera Cyratium, and Peridinium had a frequency of 0.52%, Euglenophyta with genus Euglena had a frequency of 0.13% and Cryptophyta with genus Cryptomonas had a frequency of 0.08%.
