The Puerto Rican woodpecker (''Melanerpes portoricensis'') is the only woodpecker endemic to the archipelago of Puerto Rico and is one of the five species of the ''Melanerpes'' genus that occur in the Antilles. Furthermore, it is the only resident species of the Picidae family in Puerto Rico. The species is common in the main island of Puerto Rico and rare in the island of Vieques. ==Description== The Puerto Rican woodpecker has a black body and a bright red throat and breast. It has a white patch that runs across the head from eye to eye. Its flanks and lower body have a light tangerine coloration.
