During the period from 11th May, 1991 to 5th March, 1994, seasonal study of the river Jablanica (Serbia, Yugoslavia) macrozoobenthos was carried out. Investigations were done of three sectors: in the upper, middle and down reach of the river, with the aim to estimate water quality changes by the changes in bottom fauna composition. Bottom fauna community was composed of 17 invertebrate groups with 100 taxa determined. The most diverse Oligochaeta (21 taxa) and Ephemeroptera (19 taxa). Macroinvertebrates diversity decreased downstream the river as a result of the pollutional degree increase. Saprobic indices were from 1.51 (sector 2) to 1.8 (sector 3).
