Abstract. CR-submanifold of a Kaehler manifold have been defined by Bejaneu [1] and studied by many authors. On the other hand CR-submanifold of a Sasakian manifold have been studied by Matsumoto [6] and others. Moreover, CR-submanifolds of Sasakian manifold with vanishing contact Bochner curvature tensor was studied by Shahid [7]. In [3], the author studied $% (\kappa,\mu)$-contact metric manifold for which the characteristic vector field $\xi$ belongs to the $(\kappa,\mu)$ nullity distribution. The class of $(\kappa,\mu)$-contact metric manifold contains the class of Sasakian manifold which we obtain for $\kappa=1.$ The aim of this note is to study CR-submanifolds of $(\kappa,\mu)$-contact metric manifold with vanishing generalized contact (GC-) Bochner curvature tensor.
