New records of thirty-nine aquatic annelids (Polychaeta, Oligochaeta, Hirudinea) from Bihar (India), are presented, belonging to ten families Nereidae, Nephthydae, Naididae, Tubificidae, Glossoscolecidae, Megascolecidae, Glossiphoniidae, Ozobranchidae, Hirudinidae, and Salifidae. They include two species of polychaetes, twenty-seven oligochaetes and ten leeches. A new leech, Salifa biharensis sp.n., is described. Two naidid species, Nais bretscheri and Pristina acuminata, are found for the first time from the Indian subcontinent.
