Antpecker

The antpeckers, Parmoptila, are a genus of songbirds that range across the tropical forests of western and central Africa. This genus has been placed in a number of families; at present it is placed tentatively with the estrildid finches due to similarities in breeding behaviour.

Species are:

  • Red-fronted antpecker, Parmoptila rubrifrons
  • Jameson's antpecker, Parmoptila jamesoni - often included in P. rubrifrons
  • Woodhouse's antpecker, Parmoptila woodhousei
