Abstract
The different sensibility of the benthonic macro-invertebrates has been used in determining the manner in which these communities are being influenced by the alteration of the water quality. The present study aims at following this precise aspect. The benthos samples have been collected from two rivers in the south-west of Romania: Jiu (3 stations) and Jiul de Vest (2 stations). There have been studied 10 groups of benthonic invertebrates. The benthonic communities’ density, abundance and frequency values have varied according to the physic-chemical conditions of the collecting station.
