I support the proposal to downgrade the Mottled Piculet from Near Threatened (NT) to Least Concern (LC). There is no evidence of a population decline exceeding 20% over the past 10 years. The species is primarily associated with forest edges, secondary growth, and bamboo stands; it enters forest interiors mainly in large patches where bamboo is present (Glayson A. Bencke, pers. comm.). The Extent of Occurrence (EOO) appears to be overestimated since the range presented in this assessment is larger than the distribution maps from eBird and WikiAves. However, the discrepancy is minor and does not affect the overall assessment outcome.
