1832年,威廉·斯温森首次引入食果啄木鸟属以归纳红头啄木鸟(学名:Melanerpes erythrocephalus)。[2]食果啄木鸟属属于食果啄木鸟族,后者还包括吸汁啄木鸟属的北美吸汁啄木鸟和古巴绿啄木鸟属[注 1][3]

特征

编辑

食果啄木鸟属中的鸟类体格介于小和中等之间,仅分布于新大陆。其中部分物种是西印度群岛的特有种[注 2]。one subspecies, the Grand Bahama West Indian woodpecker (M. superciliaris bahamensis) became extinct in the 1950s. The majority of the species are from Central and South America.[4] Most species are boldly marked in black and white, with some areas of red and yellow.[5] The beaks are long and pointed, and sometimes curved. The sexes differ in many species, both in colour and in size.[4]

Some species such as the acorn woodpecker and the yellow-tufted woodpecker are sociable, foraging in groups, communicating vocally and nesting communally. These have complex breeding systems including some non-breeding adult helpers assisting in rearing the young. Like other woodpeckers, insects form a large part of the diet, being caught on the wing in some species, but fruit is also eaten in large quantities and some species consume 树液. They all nest in holes that they excavate in trees, and the red-crowned woodpecker and the Hoffmann's woodpecker are unusual in that they sometimes enter their holes backwards.[5]
