Classification of toucans?

Toucans are in: Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Aves Order: Piciformes Family: Ramphastidae (wikipedia is my source for the above) Toucans are a family of birds, also known as ramphastids and within that family there are several genus, and within each genus there are several species. The five toucan genus (and some examples of species of toucans) are: Aulacorhynchus - the green toucanets, such as the emerald toucanet Selenidera - the often called dichromatic toucanets such as the Guyana toucanet Andigena - the mountain toucans, including the plate-billed mountain toucan Pteroglossus - the aracaris, including the green aracari Ramphastos - the black toucans, including the toco toucan In case you hear about there being six genus in family ramphastidae: The saffron toucanet used to be placed in its own genus (Baillonius), so for a while there were believed to be six genus in family ramphastidae. It is now recognized that the saffron toucanet is in fact an aracari, and belongs in gneus Pteroglossus.
