Recent surveys of river Tisza (Serbia) have shown that class Oligochaeta is commonly present as dominant member of benthic macroinvertebrate community. Knowing the fact that this class is very good indicator of organic upload in aquatic ecosystem, in this paper it is used for saprobiological water quality assessment of middle and lower stream of river Tisza in summer of 2002, 2004 and 2005. Results presented as saprobiological indices, showed that water quality of river Tisza (Serbia) was alfa-mesosaprobioc (the third class) during research period.

Microbiological and saprobiological characteristics of river Moraca and Skadar lake for period of 2004/2005 are done at localities: Pernica, Moraca estuary and Vranjina (Skadar Lake). The objective of the research is to establish quality of water of these aquatic ecosystems based on microbiological and saprobiological analyses, as well as, to show need for protection of these water ecosystems from permanent contaminations, mainly by sewage should be pointed out. Saprobiological index is determined based on Gulyas Pal, and Pantle Buck is used to determine saprobiological level.

This paper presents the results of the examinations of phytoplankton community of the Tamis river from March 2003 till December 2004. During the investigation it was determined 136 algal taxa from 6 divisions: Cyanophyta (10 taxa), Chrysophyta (1 taxa), Bacillariophyta (66 taxa), Pyrhophyta (4 taxa), Euglenophyta (14 taxa) and Chlorophyta (41 taxa). The contents and the structure analysis of phytoplankton as well as saprobiological valorization of water quality, has been carried out in the Republic Hydrometeorological Service of Serbia. Results of quality and quantitative analysis point to domination of Bacillariophyta and Chlorophyta. The index of saprobity given on the basis of Pantle-Buck method indicated that the quality of water of Tamis river on Jasa Tomic border locality belonged to beta and beta-alfa mesosaprobic category.
