Summary The presence of 191 species, regarded as forest birds, was sought in ten forest reserves of south‐west Nigeria. One of these reserves, Gambari, some 25 miles south of Ibadan, was visited 60 times and the species encountered each visit were noted. From these two series of data estimates of the dispersal and commonness of each species have been made, though not all the 191 species were met during the study. A comparison has been made between the forest birds of southwest Nigeria with those of southeast Nigeria as recorded by Serle (1957). The occurrence of Apalis nigriceps at Sapoba in Mid‐western State and of Parmoptila woodhousei near Lagos are noted as showing a considerable westward extension of their formerly known ranges.
