The Ugar (Serbian Cyrillic: Угар, known as the Brzica until 1878) is a river of Bosnia, a tributary of the Vrbas river. It originates at the slopes of Vlašić, upstream of Sažići and Melina villages (at around of 1,590 meters above sea level), a watershed area of Vrbanja, Ilomska and Bila rivers. The valley along the Ugar is known as Pougarje.
