''Megalaima'' is a genus of Asian barbets (family Megalaimidae). The name means ‘large throat’, from the Greek ''mega'' (, ‘large, great’) and ''laimos'' (, ‘throat’). They make up the bulk of this newly verified clade, which was hitherto united with the other barbets in the Capitonidae. The latter, however, are at least as close to the toucans as to the other lineages of barbets, making it necessary to split up the old paraphyletic "Capitonidae". ==Species== * ''Megalaima virens'', great barbet * ''Megalaima lagrandieri'', red-vented barbet * ''Megalaima zeylanica'', brown-headed barbet * ''Megalaima lineata'', lineated barbet * ''Megalaima viridis'', white-cheeked barbet * ''Megalaima faiostricta'', green-eared barbet * ''Megalaima corvina'', brown-throated barbet * ''Megalaima chrysopogon'', golden-whiskered barbet * ''Megalaima rafflesii'', red-crowned barbet * ''Megalaima mystacophanos'', red-throated barbet * ''Megalaima javensis'', black-banded barbet * ''Megalaima flavifrons'', yellow-fronted barbet * ''Megalaima franklinii'', golden-throated barbet * ''Megalaima oorti'', black-browed barbet * ''Megalaima nuchalis'', Taiwan barbet * ''Megalaima asiatica'', blue-throated barbet * ''Megalaima monticola'', mountain barbet * ''Megalaima incognita'', moustached barbet * ''Megalaima henricii'', yellow-crowned barbet * ''Megalaima armillaris'', flame-fronted barbet * ''Megalaima pulcherrima'', golden-naped barbet * ''Megalaima australis'', blue-eared barbet * ''Megalaima eximia'', Bornean barbet * ''Megalaima rubricapilla'', crimson-fronted barbet * ''Megalaima malabarica'', Malabar barbet * ''Megalaima haemacephala'', coppersmith barbet 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Megalaima」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
