The genus forms part of the woodpecker subfamily Picinae and has a sister relationship to the genus ''Dryocopus'' whose species are found in Eurasia and the Americas. The genus ''Piculus'' is a member of the tribe Picini and belongs to a clade that contains five genera: ''Colaptes'', ''Piculus'', ''Mulleripicus'', ''Dryocopus'' and ''Celeus''.

Rufous-winged Woodpecker
The rufous-winged woodpecker (''Piculus simplex'') is a species of bird in subfamily Picinae of the woodpecker family Picidae. It is found in Costa Rica, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama. Taxonomy and systematics The rufous-winged woodpecker was originally described as ''Chloronerpes simplex''. Since its inclusion in ''Piculus'' it has at times been considered conspecific with the stripe-cheeked woodpecker (''P. callopterus''), the white-throated woodpecker (''P. leucolaemus''), and the Lita woodpecker (''P. litae''); the four may form a superspecies.Winkler, H. and D.

Yellow-throated Woodpecker
The yellow-throated woodpecker (''Piculus flavigula'') is a species of bird in subfamily Picinae of the woodpecker family Picidae. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Peru, Suriname and Venezuela. Taxonomy and systematics The yellow-throated woodpecker was described by the French polymath Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon in 1780 in his ''Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux'' from a specimen collected in French Guiana. The bird was also illustrated in a hand-colored plate engraved by François-Nicolas Martinet in the ''Planches Enluminées D'Histoire Naturelle'', which was produced under the supervision of Edme-Louis Daubenton to accompany Buffon's text. Neither the plate caption nor Buffon's description included a scientific name, but in 1783 the Dutch naturalist Pieter Boddaert coined the binomial name ''Picus flavigula'' in his catalogue of the ''Planches Enluminées''. The yellow-throated woodpecker is now placed in the genus ''Pic ...
