THE KOKLASS PHEASANTS. 2&7 



Adult Female.— Much like the female of P. xanthospila, but the 

 black bars on the outer tail-feathers are incomplete and repre- 

 sented by black spots on the shaft. 



Range. — Mountain forest of Eastern China, Ngan-whi, Che- 

 kiang, and Fo-kien. 



Habits. — This very distinct Koklass is a resident in the above- 

 - mentioned mountains, and is pretty common in Fo-kien. Like 

 the Yellow-necked Koklass, it is called Song-ky (Pine-Fowl) by 

 the natives and is met with as a rule singly in the steep 

 wooded mountains. Its food and habits are quite similar to 

 those of its ally.
