Forest Double-collared Sunbird, Cinnyris fuelleborni, is a bird of the family Nectariniidae found in central and southern Tanzania, Malawi, north-east Zambia and northern Mozambique. It breeds in tropical moist montane forest in East Africa. Reichenow described it in 1899. It was once treated as a subspecies of the eastern double-collared sunbird, but later recognised as a separate species on the basis of plumage and genetic differences.
