However, accord- ing to its special features, importance and value, the Djerdap National Park stands out among the protected parts of the Danube and the Danube Basin. Special Features of the Djerdap National Park There are five national parks in Serbia. The largest one is the Djerdap National Park, which is situated in the northeast- ern part of Serbia on the left of the Dan- ube and Djerdap Lake. It spreads on the Danube riparian area from the Golubacki Plate 1 Golubac or the Upper Gorge, the first narrowing point in the composite grad fortress to the hydropower plant canyon of the Danube in the Djerdap Gorge. Some damages of the valley sides are Djerdap. Formerly it covered the area of noticeable due to the large complexes for exploitation of limestone, which is used as a 82,000ha in 1974, but by the revision in building stone 1993 the area was reduced to 63,680.45ha. they frequently compose unfavorable plant the largest river depth in Europe According to international criteria it is complexes.

    DEVELOPMENT OF TOURIST POTENTIAL AS A CHANCE FOR SERBIAN ECONOMY – EXAMPLE OF NATIONAL PARK DJERDAP Dejan Djuric1; Dragana Djuric2; Abstract Tourism is nowadays a booming economic activity. As such, it represents a particular challenge for countries that see the provision and export of tourist services as one of the most important opportunities for accelerating economic growth. The natural resources of our country and its favorable geographical position can be a precious asset for attracting tourists and meaningful involvement of investors in this area. The intensification of investment activities in the field of tourism in Serbia offers many advantages, such as: (1) the building of new modern capacities and modernization of existing tourist facilities; (2) the use of modern information technology and participation in global distribution systems; (3)innovative promotional activities and the application of modern concepts of marketing and management in tourism; (4) and improvements in the quality of complex tourist services in accordance with the requirements of the world market. The authors pay special attention to the possibilities of developing areas of tourist potential, particularly at the Djerdap National Park, which is a national asset of great importance from the standpoint of the future development of tourism and overall economic activity in our country. Keywords: Tourism, National Park Djerdap, economic growth Introduction Serbia belongs to the group of countries that are faced with numerous economic problems, and the development

The list comprised field investigations, articles, grey literature, and unpublished data. Twenty-nine species of macroinvertebrates have been recorded since 1942, with a domination of the Ponto-Caspian faunistic elements. The majority of recorded species have broad distribution and are naturalized in the waters of Serbia, while occasional or single findings of seven taxa indicate that these species have failed to form populations. Presented results clearly show that the Danube is the main corridor for the introduction and spread of non-native species into Serbia. Keywords: Serbia; inland waters; allochthonous species; introduction 1. Introduction The Water Framework Directive (WFD) [1] represents key regulation and one of the most important documents in the European Union water legislation since it was adopted in 2000.
