The Peruvian Warbling Antbird, Hypocnemis peruviana, is a species of bird in the Thamnophilidae family. Until recently, it was considered a subspecies of Hypocnemis cantator, but based on vocal differences and to a lesser degree differences in plumages it has been recommended treating them as separate species. As presently defined, the Peruvian Warbling Antbird includes a single subspecies, saturata.
The Peruvian Warbling Antbird is found at lower levels in humid forest in south-eastern Colombia, eastern Ecuador, eastern Peru, northern Bolivia and western Brazil. It is locally sympatric with the Yellow-breasted Warbling Antbird.
