The Imeri warbling antbird (Hypocnemis flavescens) is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae. It is found at lower levels in humid forest in southern Venezuela, south-eastern Colombia and north-western Brazil (west of the Branco River).

The Imeri warbling antbird was described by the English zoologist Philip Sclater in 1865 and given the binomial name Hypocnemis flavescens. [2] Until recently, it was considered a subspecies of Hypocnemis cantator , but based on vocal differences and to a lesser degree differences in plumages it is now treated as a separate species.
