Colaptes Rubiginosus Carpintero Cariblanco Golden-olive Woodpecker (female) (8598133565)
''Colaptes'' is a genus of birds in the woodpecker family Picidae. The 14 species are found across the Americas. ''Colaptes'' woodpeckers typically have a brown or green back and wings with black barring, and a beige to yellowish underside, with black spotting or barring. There are usually colorful markings on the head. Many of these birds – particularly the northerly species – are more terrestrial than usual among woodpeckers. Historically, there has been considerable uncertainty in assigning woodpecker species to genera and it is only by comparing DNA sequences that it has become possible to confidently place many of the species. Taxonomy The genus ''Colaptes'' was introduced by the Irish zoologist Nicholas Aylward Vigors in 1825 with the northern flicker (''Colaptes auratus'') as the type species. The name is from the Ancient Greek κολάπτης (''kolaptēs'') meaning "chiseller". The genus forms part of the woodpecker subfamily Picinae and has a sister rel ...

Gilded Flicker
The gilded flicker (''Colaptes chrysoides'') is a large-sized woodpecker (mean length of ) of the Sonoran, Yuma, and eastern Colorado Desert regions of the southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico, including all of Baja California, except the extreme northwestern region. Golden-yellow underwings distinguish the gilded flicker from the northern flicker found within the same region, which has red underwings. Taxonomy Four subspecies are recognized: * The Cape gilded flicker (''C. c. chrysoides'') resides in southern Baja California. * The brown gilded flicker (''C. c. brunnescens'') resides in northern and central Baja California. * Mearns' gilded flicker (''C. c. mearnsi'') resides in extreme southeastern California to Arizona and northwestern Mexico. * The Mexican gilded flicker (''C. c. tenebrosus'') resides in northwestern Mexico from northern Sonora to northern Sinaloa. Habitat The gilded flicker most frequently builds its nest hole in a saguaro cactus, excavating ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Dryocopus
''Dryocopus'' is a genus of large powerful woodpeckers, typically 35–45 cm in length. It has representatives in North and South America, Europe, and Asia; some South American species are endangered. It was believed to be closely related to the American genus ''Campephilus'', but it is part of an entirely different lineage of woodpeckers altogether (Benz ''et al.'', 2006) Their breeding habitat is forested areas with large trees, where they nest in a large cavity in a dead tree or a dead part of a tree. They may excavate a new hole each year, creating habitat for other large cavity nesting birds. They are non-migratory permanent residents. They are mainly black in plumage with red on the crown of the head, often as a crest. Most species also have some white areas of plumage, especially on the head, and some have additional red facial markings. The male, female and juvenile plumages of each species usually differ, often in the extent of red on the crown and elsewhere on the ...

Grey-crowned Woodpecker
The grey-crowned woodpecker (''Colaptes auricularis'') is a bird species in the woodpecker family (Picidae). It was formerly placed in the genus ''Piculus'' (Benz ''et al.'', 2006). The scientific name ''auricularis'' means "eared", an appearance created by the confluent, fine patterning of the species' head. It is endemic to the Pacific slope of Mexico. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. References * Benz, Brett W.; Robbins, Mark B. & Peterson, A.

Bermuda Flicker
The Bermuda flicker (''Colaptes oceanicus'') is an extinct woodpecker from the genus ''Colaptes''. It was confined to Bermuda and is known only by fossil remains dated to the Late Pleistocene and the Holocene. However, an old travel report by explorer Captain John Smith from the 17th century may also refer to this species. Extinction Though most material is from Late Pleistocene deposits unearthed by Storrs L. Olson, David B. Wingate and others in Admirals Cave, the Wilkinson Quarry and the Walsingham Sink Cave in Hamilton Parish in Bermuda in 1981, there is one bone, a tarsometatarsus from a juvenile, which is from a Holocene layer in Spittal Pond. This fact, and an old travel report by Captain John Smith from 1623, may give evidence to the possibility that this species just may have persisted until at least the early colonization of Bermuda. Smith wrote: References Bermuda flicker Birds of Bermuda Extinct animals of North America Bird extinctions since 1500 Fossil t ...
