About the Ochre-collared Piculet

The ochre-collared piculet (Picumnus temminckii) is a species of bird in subfamily Picumninae of the woodpecker family Picidae. It is found in Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay. The ochre-collared piculet is monotypic. However, the species' taxonomy and that of genus Picnumnus in general are uncertain. The ochre-collared piculet is closely related to the white-barred piculet (P. cirratus) and the ocellated piculet (P. dorbignyanus) and at times these species have been treated as synonymous. It frequently hybridizes with the white-barred piculet and occasionally with the white-wedged piculet (P. albosquamatus).
