Typical barbet, green with a brightly-colored face. Facial pattern is plainer than some barbets’, but subtly attractive nonetheless: blue overall with red speckles on the edges and black lines through the eye and across the cheek. Forages in foothill and lowland evergreen forests, where it works the canopy for fruits and insects. Song is halting and tremulous, consisting of single notes followed by doubles and triples in an ascending but hesitant-sounding series of hollow trills.
