Summary. — The ecology of the communities of amphibians and reptiles are nearly unknown in the coastal barrier island forests of the Niger Delta, southern Nigeria. In this paper, we examine aspects of species richness and phenology of amphibians and reptiles at several sites of Brass Island, one of the main coastal barrier islands of Nigeria. We employed a suite of field methods to capture specimens, and performed an equal field effort during both dry and wet seasons. Overall, we captured 31 species belonging to 17 families. For amphibians, we collected one species of Pipidae and Ranidae, and two of Ptychadenidae, Bufonidae, and Hyperoliidae. For reptiles, we captured one species of Agamidae, Varanidae, Chamaeleonidae, Typhlopidae, Viperi...
