The paper gives an upper bound for the number of incidences in d- dimensional euclidean space between n points and spheres which are subject to certain conditions on their positions. Similar results for points and lines respectively points and circles in an euclidean plane are due to \textit{E. Szemerédi} and \textit{W. T. Trotter jun.} [Combinatorica 3, 381-392 (1983; Zbl 0541.05012)] and \textit{J. Beck} [Combinatorica 3, 281-297 (1983; Zbl 0533.52004)], respectively. In addition the author discusses the number of unit distances and furtherst- neighbor pairs among n points in d-dimensional euclidean space.
