The warbling antbird is a complex consisting of six species of antbirds that until recently were considered a single species found throughout the Amazon in South America. Based on vocal differences and to a lesser degree differences in plumages, it has been recommended treating them as separate species:
- Guianan Warbling Antbird (Hypocnemis cantator).
- Imeri Warbling Antbird (Hypocnemis flavescens).
- Peruvian Warbling Antbird (Hypocnemis peruviana).
- Yellow-breasted Warbling Antbird (Hypocnemis subflava).
- Rondonia Warbling Antbird (Hypocnemis ochrogyna).
- Spix's Warbling Antbird (Hypocnemis striata).

Bordered about with warbling water brooks.
A maid
Laughing the love-laugh with me; proud of looks.”
