In order to determine the mollusca fauna of some freshwaters of Izmir, samplings were made as seasonal from 22 stations between May 1994 and May 1996. As a result of the qualitative study, totally 15 taxa were determined; of them 12 belong to Gastropoda and 3 to Bivalvia. Among the mollusc species at stations, the commonest ones were Melanopsis praemorsa (9 stations) and Physella acuta (7 stations). The least ones were Unio crassus (1 station), Theodoxus anatolicus (1station).
