Syntypes ♀♀ in NHML (see Thompson 1937: 76). Paratype ♂ of Menacanthus pitius in NHML (see Shchedrina et al. 2017).
Type host: Picus viridis Linnaeus, 1758.
Chilean hosts: Colaptes pitius (Molina, 1782); Picoides lignarius (Molina, 1782).
Other hosts: Twenty-five species of the genera Megalaima, Colaptes, Dryocopus, Melanerpes, Picoides, Picus and Sphyrapicus (see Price et al. 2003: 124).
Chilean localities: Las Chinchillas: Region IV; Valparaíso: Region V; Molina: Region VII; Cordillera de Chillán: Region XVI.
Geographic distribution: All continents, except Antarctica.

Other significant references: Price et al. (2003); Galloway & Lamb (2016).
Remarks: Cordillera de Chillán is a new locality for Menacanthus pici in Chile, based on specimens from Colaptes pitius held in MONZ. Galloway & Lamb (2016) suggested the possibility that M. pici is a species complex based on molecular evidence.
