The most abundant and widely distributed of the family in Costa 

 Rica, with the single exception of Picolaptes c. compressus. Its range 

 covers the whole of the Caribbean and Pacific lowlands from sea-level 

 up to about 2,500 feet on the Caribbean side and 2,000 on the Pacific. 

 It is found in the heavy forest and to a great extent in the more open 

 woodland, especially on the Pacific side. I found it more abundant 

 in the Terraba Valley than in any other part of Costa Rica I visited.
