Slender-billed Greenbul, Stelgidillas gracilirostris, is a bulbul found in western and central Africa. It breeds across the west and centre of the continent, and occurs in dry forest, moist lowland forest and moist montane forest. It was first described in 1844 by Strickland. The species is placed in the monotypic genus Stelgidillas within the family Pycnonotidae.
