This paper presented indicative ecological status assessment of four investigated streams of Rogozna Mountain based on aquatic macroinvertebrate community. A total number of 116 taxa from 16 taxa groups were identified at 9 selected localities within the study area. The aquatic insects were the most dominant group in the benthic community in respect to taxa richness, while the rest of the community consisted of taxa groups with lower participation. General conclusion is that the degree of organic pollution of the surveyed streams is low and indicative ecological status of streams in the study area, based on aquatic macroinvertebrates community, could be assessed as good to moderate.
