Parmoptila rubrifrons jamesoni Jameson's antpecker (Parmoptila jamesoni) is a songbird species found in central Africa.
Like all antpeckers, it is tentatively placed in the estrildid finch family (Estrildidae).
Jameson's antpecker inhabits tropical lowland moist forest in Uganda, Tanzania and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
[2] Unlike its western relative which is declining noticeably, P. jamesoni is still common and widespread.
Given Jameson's violent behavior[4] in Africa, ornithologists have suggested changing the common name of this species.
