The predicted antwren (Herpsilochmus praedictus) is an insectivorous bird in the antbird family Thamnophilidae.
The predicted antwren was first described in 2013. The name refers to the fact that the bird was predicted to be a separate species on the basis of its distinctive vocalizations, which was later confirmed by analysis of its mitochondrial DNA.
It is found in Amazonian Brazil.
