In 2011–2013 investigation of the lower part of the Araks River was conducted. Species composition and
quantitative distribution of the macrozoobenthos was studied. Ninety five species of invertebrate organisms
belonging to 14 systematic groups were found. Mollusks (19 species) and chironomids (17 species) are most
diverse. The total biomass of macrozoobenthos changed within 1.96–2.18 g/m2 at the density of 529–639
individuals/sq.m. The maximum development was registered in 2012. In 2011 chironomids and mollusks were
dominant. Hydrological characteristics of the Araks River were given.
