About the Jameson's Antpecker

Jameson's antpecker is a songbird species found in central Africa. Like all antpeckers, it is tentatively placed in the estrildid finch family (Estrildidae). It has traditionally been included as a subspecies of P. rubrifrons and the common name Jameson's antpecker was sometimes used for both taxa. But today, they are often considered distinct species.
