Chloropicus is a genus of birds in the woodpecker family Picidae that are native to Sub-Saharan Africa.
Taxonomy
The genus was introduced by the French ornithologist Alfred Malherbe in 1845 with the fire-bellied woodpecker (Chloropicus pyrrhogaster) as the type species.[1] The word Chloropicus is from the Greek khlōros meaning green and pikos meaning woodpecker.[2] Molecular genetic studies have shown that the genus Chloropicus is sister to the genus Dendropicos.[3][4] Species in this genus were previously sometimes assigned to Dendropicos.[5][6]
The genus contains the three species:[6]
