The northern, larger race of the Lineated Barbet is very common indeed över the 

 whole of Northern Siarn. 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.

Cyanops cyanotis: Gyldenstolpe I p. 51; Gyldenstolpe II; Gyldenstolpe III p. 



Mesobucco duvaugli orientalis: Robinson II p. 738. 



1 juv. Koon Tan, June 1914. W = 81 mm.; T = 48 mm.; C = 16 mm.; Tarsus = 17 mm. 



The Blue-eared Barbet seems to be extremely rare in Siarn 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 Robinson under the name of Mesobucco duvaugli orientalis and founded on a 

 single specimen obtained by Boden Kloss on Koh Mehsi (Southeastern Siarn) during 

 his recent trip to the Chantaboon province.
