Todd's antwren (Herpsilochmus stictocephalus) is a species of bird in subfamily Thamnophilinae of family Thamnophilidae, the "typical antbirds".

The species is very similar to the spot-tailed antwren (H. sticturus), differing mostly in female plumage and song.

It forages singly, in pairs, and in family groups, and often as a member of a mixed-species feeding flock.

It typically feeds between 20 and 40 m (65 and 130 ft) above the ground, at the ends of leafy branches, in the crown of trees, and in vine tangles.

It forages actively but methodically and usually captures prey by gleaning leaves, stems, and vines by reaching from a perch.

The song of Todd's antwren is a "short, high, rapid series of about 12 notes, which descend and slow down at the end".

Its song is the easiest way to separate it from the spot-tailed antwren, as both are hard to see in the forest canopy.
