A large number of species of terrestrial, freshwater and marine molluscs are found in the wild in Falcón State. However, most of the marine mollusks in the area are the same species that occur elsewhere in the Caribbean faunal zone.

This is a partial list of the molluscs of Falcón State. The families are listed alphabetically within the classes. Whether the family is marine, terrestrial or freshwater is indicated after the name of the family, but there is no attempt to separate marine species from non-marine species.
