The Double-barred Finch is a small Australian finch that eats seeds and insects in dry grassy woodland and scrub. It is also recorded near water and on farmland.
It is about 10–12 cm long, with grey-brown upperparts, white underparts, two black bands across the chest, black markings around a white face, and white spots on the black wings.
It moves in pairs or groups through grassy woodland and scrub, eating mainly seeds as well as insects. It also occurs on farmland near water.
