In the year 2010 ichthyological research on some Vrbas River tributeries located on wider area of Banjaluka city (Bosnia and Herzegovina) was carried out and the occurrence of 14 fish species was recorded. On the basis of the occurrence and abundance of fish species indicators as limnosaprobic parameter, water quality of the analyzed watercourses variated from oligosaprobic to beta mesosaprobic (I and II class of bonity) with saprobic index from 1.27 for Švrakava River to 1.81 for Vrbanja River. The obtained results indicate that water quality of this Vrbas River watershed was on satisfactory level for multiple purposes (in order to sustain ichthyofauna diversity and production and as potential protected areas and spawning zone for some endangered domestic fish species).
