The paper presents aquatic macroinvertebrate community at four investigated localities of the Gradac river. Sampling was carried out during 2003 and 2006. Community structure and composition, together with field data, were used to estimate the water quality status of the river. A total of 87 taxa have been recorded. Insects were found to be the most diverse component, especially Ephemeroptera. Insects were dominant in the regard of the quantitative structure of the community, as well. Recorded community indicates good water quality, ranged between oligosaprobic and beta-mesosaprobic status (1st-2nd class according national classification scheme).
