Turquoise-throated barbet

The turquoise-throated barbet (Psilopogon chersonesus) is an Asian barbet found in Thailand.

The barbets get their name from the bristles which fringe their heavy bills; this species eats fruits and insects.

It used to be considered a subspecies of the blue-throated barbet.
