Three species of mollusks and one annelid are described from the Paleocene upper mudstone member of the Potrerillos Formation (La Popa Basin), and from the upper part of the Rancho Nuevo Formation (Parras Basin). The species described include a gastropod, a bivalve, a nautiloid and a serpulid worm, which are formally reported for first time as Paleocene fauna of the Difunta Group in northeastern Mexico. The nautiloid species provides the basis for correlation between the two sedimentary basins of the Difunta Group, as it is reported for Paleocene layers of the two formations studied. Shoreface and tidal-flat depositional environments are inferred for the Paleocene rocks of the Difunta Group.
