About the White-wedged Piculet

The white-wedged piculet (Picumnus albosquamatus) is a species of bird in subfamily Picumninae of the woodpecker family Picidae. It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil and Paraguay. The white-wedged piculet has two subspecies, the nominate P. a. albosquamatus and P. a. guttifer (Sundevall, 1866). P. a. guttifer has at times been treated as a separate species but intergrades and hybridizes with the nominate. The white-wedged piculet hybridizes with the white-barred piculet (P. cirratus), the ocellated piculet (P. dorbignyanus), and the ochre-collared piculet (P. temminckii).
