	%X One of the most important applications of
wireless sensor networks is data collection. This paper
proposes as efficient approach for data collection in wireless
sensor networks by introducing Member Forward List. This list
includes the nodes with highest priority for forwarding the data.
When a node fails or dies, this list is used to select the next node
with higher priority. The benefit of this node is that it prevents
the algorithm from repeating when a node fails or dies. The
results show that Member Forward List decreases power
consumption and latency in wireless sensor networks.
