Freshwater molluscs (Gastropoda and Bivalvia) were sampled in the Moyamba and Bo districts of Sierra Leone in 1986. Bulinus senegalensis, Caelatura aegyptiaca ssp., and Mutela ovata are recorded for the first time from Sierra Leone. Sierraia whitei is confirmed to occur in the Sewa river drainage. The other species collected are Saulea vitrea, Sierraia leonensis, and Etheria elliptica.
