Summary

Description

Colaptes auratus rufipileus Ridgway, 1877 (syn. Colaptes rufipileus; Colaptes cafer rufipileus) - male Guadalupe flicker (mount, FMNH 9271, Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago, Illinois, USA).

This now-extinct bird's geographic distribution was restricted to Guadalupe Island, offshore from the western coast of Baja California, Mexico. Flickers are members of the woodpecker family (Picidae). Human introduction of goats and cats to Guadalupe Island resulted in this flicker's extinction. The sharp, pointed beak of flickers is used to access insects in wood via chiseling.
