Smoky-fronted Tody-Flycatcher, Poecilotriccus fumifrons, is a tyrant flycatcher of South America, breeding in eastern Amazonia and eastern Brazil. It was first described by Hartlaub in 1853. The species has a disjunct range, with one population in Suriname and French Guiana and records from Venezuela, and another in Brazil from Pará and Maranhão south to Mato Grosso, as well as along the eastern coast from Paraíba to northern Bahia. It lives in thick shrubs and tangles at forest edges, in abandoned pastures and openings, and in bushy savanna near woodland.
