The Banded Woodpecker (Chrysophlegma miniaceum) is a striking, common resident bird of West Malaysia known for its reddish-brown head and back, yellow nape, and distinct dark barring on its whitish belly, with males having red ear coverts and females having white spots on their face. It is about the sie of the Common Flameback but bigger than the Sunda Pygmy Woodpecker.

It is fairly common in secondary forest, orchards, landward edge of mangroves, remnant peat swamp and freshwater swamp but in Seberang Perai whilst not rare, it is rather uncommon at the Penaga mangroves.
