Aquatic macroinvertebrates play a crucial role in freshwater ecosystems, serving as reliable indicators of water quality and ecosystem health. To effectively monitor and assess these ecosystems, it is essential to employ appropriate sampling methods that capture the diversity and abundance of macroinvertebrate communities. The objective of this study was to provide a comprehensive overview and comparative analysis of different sampling methods for aquatic macroinvertebrates, highlighting their advantages, limitations, and applicability in ecological research was carried out. The results showed that the most commonly used methods include Kick-net Sampling, Surber Sampler, D-frame Net, Bottle Sampling, and Pitfall Traps. Researchers should select methods based on study goals, environmental conditions, and target organisms. Integrating multiple techniques enhances understanding of macroinvertebrate communities and their responses to environmental changes, contributing to improved assessments of water quality, ecosystem health, and conservation in freshwater ecosystems.
