For the first time the fauna of aquatic insects of the headwaters of the Fiagdon river basin is studied in the comparative aspect. The zoobenthos species composition (45 species, 32 genera, 22 families, 9 orders, 5 classes, 4 types), and also the peculiar properties of propagation of aquatic insects communities in the upper stream of the rivers of the Fiagdon basin are determined. The hydrobiological features of tributary streams of the Fiagdon (Kartsadon, Ahsaudon) are studied. The taxonomic weight of orders and families as the part of zoobenthos is identified.The results of the investigation can be used in the development environment strategy especially in preserving of aquatic resources.
