Endemic Bird Areas
Birdlife International has defined the following Endemic Bird Areas (EBAs) in the region:

- Principe
- Upper Guinea forests
- Cameroon and Gabon lowlands
- Cameroon mountains
Each area has its own set of endemic species, but there are many further species endemic to the region as a whole.
In addition the following are classified as Secondary areas (areas with at least one restricted-range bird species, but not meeting the criteria to qualify as EBAs)
