RAMPHASTIDAE Barbets > Bornean Brown Barbet

Bornean Brown Barbet
Latin Name : Calorhamphus fuliginosus
Site Name : Sepilok
Photographer : SINGH HSS, Amar
Date : 2016-05-02
Notes : One of many that were feeding on oil palm fruit (Elaeis guineensis).
There has been a recent split for the Brown Barbet into two species, based on Den Tex and Leonard (2013): C. hayii and C. fuliginosus. References:

The first Caloramphus hayii is confined to the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, South Myanmar and adjacent peninsular Thailand. The name suggested for this is Sooty Barbet but a number of sites prefer the name “Malay Brown Barbet”; as do I.
See: del Hoyo, J., Collar, N. & Kirwan, G.M. (2016). Malay Brown Barbet (Caloramphus hayii). In: del Hoyo, J., Elliott, A., Sargatal, J., Christie, D.A. & de Juana, E. (eds.). Handbook of the Birds of the World Alive. Lynx Edicions, Barcelona. (retrieved from http://www.hbw.com/node/467435 on 7 May 2016).
The one I am posting here is Caloramphus fuliginosus. The name suggested for this is Brown Barbet but a number of sites prefer the name “Bornean Brown Barbet”.
See: Short, L.L., Horne, J.F.M. & Kirwan, G.M. (2016). Bornean Brown Barbet (Caloramphus fuliginosus). In: del Hoyo, J., Elliott, A., Sargatal, J., Christie, D.A. & de Juana, E. (eds.). Handbook of the Birds of the World Alive. Lynx Edicions, Barcelona. (retrieved from http://www.hbw.com/node/56029 on 7 May 2016).
There are two subspecies in Borneo: C. f. tertius in north Borneo and C. f. fuliginosus in the rest of Borneo. The birds I am posting here are C. f. tertius which have a paler brown head and the brown-rufous plumage does not extend very far on the breast. Phillipps 2014 suggests that the plumage varies considerably.
