Introduction: Since 2014, the “AM Project” (Brazil) has been conducting taxonomic, bioecological and conservationist research on molluscs present in the Caribbean continental territory of Venezuela, with special emphasis on its land (terrestrial and arboreal) forest species (Agudo-Padrón 2021, Agudo-Padrón & Vera-Caripe 2022). Up to date, these aspects of the natural history of this geographic region have/ had been poorly studied. Objective: Substantial update of this knowledge through the unprecedented curatorial review of the collection of molluscs deposited in the malacological collection of the “Museo de Biología de la Universidad Central de Venezuela – UCV”, based in city of Caracas. Methodology: Between October 2022 and February 2023, a taxonomic review and examination of material from forest snails of the family Amphibulimidae deposited in the mollusc internal collection of the Museum was performed. Results and conclusions: Determination of fourteen (14) species, collected/ found in 16 geopolitical entities of the country, which were taxonomically grouped into one (1) family and two (2) genera.
