Summary:The collection of macrozoobenthos from the Gostelja River was conducted in May 2022. Sampling was carried out at 7 locations. Through qualitative-quantitative analysis of macrozoobenthos, a total of 19 taxa or 355 individuals belonging to different taxonomic groups such as Mollusca, Turbellaria, Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, Trichoptera, Diptera, and Odonata were recorded.
