Genus contradiction

[edit]

Introductory paragraph both introduces the species with the scientific name "Chrysocolaptes validus" and then claims it is " monotypic in the genus Reinwardtipicus" while the info box concurs that it belongs to genus Chrysocolaptes. The page is linked separately as a monotypic Reinwardtipicus on the Picinae taxonomy list but is also included in the species list at the genus-level Chrysocolaptes page. There may not be scientific consensus on categorization at this point, but the Wiki pages should note this and at least be internally consistent. Llapha (talk) 01:30, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
