Ramphastides is an infraorder of the order Piciformes that includes toucans and barbets.
Formerly, the barbets have been classified in a single family, the Capitonidae.
[1] However, this has turned out to be paraphyletic with regard to toucans, which resulted in the Capitonidae being split into several families.
[2][3] The Ramphastides contain five extant families.
Sometimes, they are treated as the superfamily Ramphastoidea.
