The olive-crowned flowerpecker (Dicaeum pectorale) is a small passerine bird in the flowerpecker family, Dicaeidae. It is found in far western New Guinea and on adjacent islands. There are two subspecies: D. p. ignotum on Gebe Island and D. p. pectorale elsewhere. The red-capped flowerpecker (D. geelvinkianum) and Louisiade flowerpecker (D. nitidum) are sometimes included in this species.
