The photo in Opus associated with Yucatan Woodpecker looks to me like a female Golden-fronted for the following reasons:
1. The bill is too long and too robust.
2. The bird is lacking the golden tufts around the base of the bill that should be present in both males and females.
I have uploaded a distant view of a Yucatan Woodpecker to the Opus gallery, but I hesitate to include it yet until someone confirms or rebuts my id challenge.
