''Celeus'' is a genus of woodpeckers found in tropical and subtropical forests and woodland in Central and South America. Its members are: * Cinnamon woodpecker, ''Celeus loricatus'' * Scaly-breasted woodpecker, ''Celeus grammicus'' * Waved woodpecker, ''Celeus undatus'' * Chestnut-colored woodpecker, ''Celeus castaneus'' * Chestnut woodpecker, ''Celeus elegans'' * Pale-crested woodpecker, ''Celeus lugubris'' * Blond-crested woodpecker, ''Celeus flavescens'' * Cream-colored woodpecker, ''Celeus flavus'' * Rufous-headed woodpecker, ''Celeus spectabilis'' * Kaempfer's woodpecker, ''Celeus (spectabilis) obrieni''; formerly Caatinga woodpecker * Ringed woodpecker, ''Celeus torquatus'' * Amazonian black-breasted woodpecker, ''Celeus occidentalis'' * Atlantic black-breasted woodpecker, ''Celeus tinnunculus'' * Helmeted woodpecker, ''Celeus galeatus'', formerly ''Dryocopus galeatus'' The South Asian rufous woodpecker (''Micropternus brachyurus'') is a peculiar species that was formerly placed in ''Celeus'' too. However, its similarity seems to be due to convergent evolution, as it does not even seem to belong to the same tribe of Picinae as ''Celeus'' does. ==References== * * * Stiles and Skutch, ''A guide to the birds of Costa Rica'' ISBN 0-8014-9600-4 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Celeus (bird)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
