食果啄木鸟属，是啄木鸟科的一個屬。該屬包括24個種，其中大多數具有顯眼的黑白條紋，夾雜紅色與黃色。

分類

1832年，威廉·斯温森首次引入食果啄木鸟属以歸納红头啄木鸟（學名：Melanerpes erythrocephalus）。[2]食果啄木鸟属屬於食果啄木鸟族，後者還包括吸汁啄木鳥屬的北美吸汁啄木鳥和古巴綠啄木鳥屬[註 1][3]。

特徵

食果啄木鳥屬中的鳥類體格介於小和中等之間，僅分布於新大陸。其中部分物種是西印度群島的特有種[註 2]。one subspecies, the Grand Bahama West Indian woodpecker (M. superciliaris bahamensis) became extinct in the 1950s. The majority of the species are from Central and South America.[4] Most species are boldly marked in black and white, with some areas of red and yellow.[5] The beaks are long and pointed, and sometimes curved. The sexes differ in many species, both in colour and in size.[4]

Some species such as the acorn woodpecker and the yellow-tufted woodpecker are sociable, foraging in groups, communicating vocally and nesting communally. These have complex breeding systems including some non-breeding adult helpers assisting in rearing the young. Like other woodpeckers, insects form a large part of the diet, being caught on the wing in some species, but fruit is also eaten in large quantities and some species consume 樹液. They all nest in holes that they excavate in trees, and the red-crowned woodpecker and the Hoffmann's woodpecker are unusual in that they sometimes enter their holes backwards.[5]
