The golden-fronted woodpecker (''Melanerpes aurifrons'') is a North American woodpecker. Its preferred habitat is mesquite and riparian woodlands. It is distributed from Texas and Oklahoma in the United States through Mexico to Honduras and northern Nicaragua.〔Husak, Michael S. and Terry C. Maxwell. (1998). Golden-fronted Woodpecker (''Melanerpes aurifrons''), ''The Birds of North America Online'' (A. Poole, Ed.). Ithaca: Cornell Lab of Ornithology; Retrieved from the Birds of North America Online: http://bna.birds.cornell.edu/bna/species/373 〕 Cooke listed this species as an abundant resident of the lower Rio Grande Valley, Texas, in 1884. ==Taxonomy== Recent genetic data indicate that the species as currently constructed is paraphyletic. The golden-fronted, golden-naped, wide-bar-backed birds from the north of the range ("true" golden-fronted woodpeckers) were shown to be more closely related to red-bellied woodpecker than the red-fronted, red-naped, narrow-bar-backed birds from the south. It is suggested that the latter population, the ''santacruzi'' group, be treated as a separate species, Velasquez's woodpecker. It is found from eastern Mexico to Nicaragua.
