The main characteristics of catchment area of Boka Kotorska Bay (Adriatic sea, Montenegro, Yugoslavia), are high slope, carstic structure of ground, high precipitation (over 5000 mm a year) and high run-off of rain water. All rainwater is transported trough carstic ground structures quickly appearing in numerous sources along the sea cost or ones located on the bottom of the Bay. The large volume of freshwater which permanently empty into the Bay has the strong influence on the aquatic environment (salinity, temperature, transparency, etc.) and biota (abundance of the species) as it has been observed in the parts of Boka Kotorska Bay (i.e. Morinj and Risan Bays). The abundance and number of species are the good indicator of changes of aquatic environment and hydrological changes as well as of the capability of aquatic organisms to adapt quickly on the severe changes of conditions.
