The Imeri warbling antbird (Hypocnemis flavescens) is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae. 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 Imeri warbling antbird includes a single subspecies, perflava.
The Imeri warbling antbird is found at lower levels in humid forest in southern Venezuela, south-eastern Colombia and north-western Brazil (west of the Branco River). Its conservation status has been assessed by BirdLife International as Least Concern .[1]
