The northern, larger race of the Lineated Barbet is very common indeed over the 
whole of Northern Siam. It even occurred in the Siamese Malaya though less abundant. 
It frequents open deciduous forests as well as damp evergreen jungles, and its loud 
call is generally heard, even during the hottest hours of the day. It feeds entirely on 
fruits and this species as well as the other kind of Barbets collected during my journey 
were exceptionally rich in intestinal worms.

The Blue-eared Barbet seems to be extremely rare in Siam at least in the parts of 
the country visited during my journey. 
The specimen obtained is apparently immature, being almost green with only a 
slight indication of the blue colour on the ear-coverts. 
It apparently belongs to the typical form and not to the subspecies recently de- 
scribed by Ropinson under the name of Mesobucco duvaugli orientalis and founded on a 
single specimen obtained by Boprn Kuioss on Koh Mehsi (Southeastern Siam) during 
his recent trip to the Chantaboon province.
