Toucan-Barbets
Semnornis
The toucan-barbets are small birds in the genus Semnornis. The genus was often included in the paraphyletic barbets, but recently is usually classified into a distinct family, Semnornithidae; alternatively, all barbets might be moved to the toucan family Ramphastidae as a subfamily, Semnornithinae. Toucan-barbets comprise only two species: the toucan barbet (S. ramphastinus) and the prong-billed barbet (S. frantzii).
