Description
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. 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. There are two subspecies: H. f. flavescens Sclater, PL, 1865 – east Colombia, south Venezuela and northwest Brazil H. f. perflava Pinto, 1966 – central Roraima in northern Brazil Its conservation status has been assessed by BirdLife International as Least Concern. 
Feeding Habits
Imeri Warbling Antbird's diet predominantly consists of beetles and their larvae. Imeri Warbling Antbird forages similarly to H. cantator, often feeding at army-ant swarms and employing perch-gleans or short sallies. While foraging, imeri Warbling Antbird may stick to the outskirts if 'professional' ant-followers are present.
Habitat
Imeri Warbling Antbird typically resides in lush environments characterized by vine-laden edges and openings in forests, particularly those with dense undergrowth. Its preferred habitats are the fringes of evergreen terra firme and várzea forests, but it is also found in the shrub-bordered savanna woodlands, regenerating secondary forests, and in the vegetative thickets adjacent to creeks and swamps within broad tropical lowland regions.
