The River Šuica (or Šujica) is a river flowing through Duvno Field and the wider region of Tropolje in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Its sources are Veliki Stržanj and Mali Stržanj. It flows through and draines most of the Šuica Valley and Duvno Field. The river disappears underground near the village Kovači in southwestern Duvno Field and partially re-emerges at the source of Ričina in village Prisoje and then flows into the accumulation lake Buško Blato.[1]
