Invertebrates are the basisof biodiversity of Bosnia and Hercegovina's fauna, but
just invertebrates are the least researched. During the research of EPHEMEROPTERA
and PLECOPTERA in the river Oskova there were sampled 23 species of
EPHEMEROPTERA with a total of 398 individuals and 17 species of PLECOPTERA
with 352 individuals. Based on the research conducted in the river Oskova we obtained
data about the composition of macroinvertebrate communities, determined taxa and
distributions and obtained data on water quality. The results indicate favorable
conditions for life of macroinvertebrates, relatively high diversity, and can be used for
finding effective control and biomonitoring of the analyzed ecosystem.Beskičmenjaci čine okosnicu biodiverziteta bosansko-hercegovačke faune, ali
su upravo beskičmenjaci i najslabije istraženi organizmi. Prilikom istraživanja
EPHEMEROPTERA i PLECOPTERA u rijeci Oskova uzorkovane su 23 vrste
EPHEMEROPTERA sa ukupno 398 jedinki i 17 vrsta PLECOPTERA sa 352 jedinke. Na
osnovu sprovedenih istraživanja dobijeni su podaci o sastavu zajednica makroinvertebrata,
izvršena je determinacija taksona i njihova distribucija, što je omogućilo davanje ocjene o
kvalitetu vode. Rezultati istraživanja ukazuju na povoljne uvjete za život
makroinvertebrata i njihov relativno visok diverzitet, tako da se ovi organizmi mogu
upotrijebiti za pronalazak efikasne kontrole i biomonitoringa rijeke Oskove
