Naming
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:
⤷ "Hypocnemis flavescens flavescens" Sclater, PL, 1865 – east Colombia, south Venezuela and northwest Brazil
⤷ "Hypocnemis flavescens perflava" Pinto, 1966 – central Roraima in northern Brazil
