Fallicambarus tenuis is a species of crayfish in the genus Fallicambarus in the family Cambaridae. It was the only species in the subgenus Procambarus (Tenuicambarus) before DNA analysis suggested a reclassification.[2]

Fallicambarus tenuis is rare throughout its range, which is restricted to the Ouachita Mountains of Le Flore County, Oklahoma and Polk County, Arkansas.[3]
