Acer forrestii is a snakebark maple found in central China. Depending on the taxonomist, it is one of at least five subspecies of Acer pectinatum (Acer pectinatum subsp. forrestii).

Other taxonomists do not agree that this is a subspecies of Acer pectinatum, and instead suggest that it is its own separate species, Acer forrestii.
