Abstract
This study was conducted at an isolated Ayer Hitam Forest Reserve with the objective to determine the effects of edge on the upperstorey birds. The information on upperstorey birds were recorded using point sampling method. Altogether a total of 113 species from 3 226 observations of birds were recorded. 61 species 45.86 from 1 618 observations 50.15 were classified as upperstorey birds. Results showed that 48 species 78.67 of the total upperstorey birds observed in this isolated forest reserve were considered as rare species while four species namely Phaenicophaeus javanicus Calyptomena viridis Dinopium rafflesii and Psittinus cyanurus are the rarest forest interior species.
