森林眼鏡蛇(學名:Naja melanoleuca),又名黑白眼鏡蛇[4],為一種分佈於非洲中西部的毒蛇,常見於低地森林及熱帶草原,但亦能適應更乾燥的生境及擅長游泳。[5]其為眼鏡蛇屬中體型最大的成員,體長可達3.1米,也是非洲最大的眼鏡蛇。[6]此蛇食性廣泛,獵物涵蓋昆蟲及各類體型適合的爬行與哺乳動物。[4]這種眼鏡蛇機警、敏捷、危險性高[5][7],在受騷擾時會鼓起頸部並抬起前半身,作出攻擊的姿勢。由於不同因素,被森林眼鏡蛇咬傷的人不多,但一旦被咬則需盡快就醫,因其可危及生命。[8]

Clinical experience with Naja melanoleuca has been very sparse, and few recorded bites have been documented.
