There are few published records on the occurrence and abundance of birds on the island of Maui, Hawaii. Most recent reviews (Banko 1971, Berger 1972) indicated statuses for several species different from those we observed during a two-day visit to the rain forests of Koolau Forest Reserve. The study area extends from 1.2 km northeast to 2 km northwest of Puu Alaea. Elevations range from 1860 m to 2010–2200 m at the upper edge of the forest.
