A study of the neurometrics and oculometrics of the Nigerian Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) was done using twenty (20) male and fifteen (15) female adult quails. The mean brain weight, relative eyeball weight, relative brain weight were 0.71 ± 0.07 g, 0.56%, 0.5% respectively. The values obtained for the mean brain weight, length and depth of the cerebrum, weights of right and left eyes were slightly higher in the females (0.75 ± 0.04 g, 0.94 ± 0.21 cm, 0.74 ± 0.08 cm, 0.42 ± 0.02 g, 0.43 ± 0.02 g respectively) relative to the males (0.70 ± 0.08 g, 0.81 ± 0.12 cm, 0.65 ± 0.08 cm, 0.40 ± 0.02 g, 0.39 ± 0.03 g respectively). This showed that the heavier head weights in the males (6.69 ± 0.56 g, females-6.4 ± 0.53 g) did not necessarily imply heavier brains or eyeballs. Results obtained provide added information to avian neuroanatomy and oculometrics, and can serve as baseline data in applied and comparative research.
