(Lower figure) 



NEPAL KOKLASS PHEASANT— P^/^^r^^?^ macrolopha nipalensis Gould 



(Right-hand figure) 



The sides and flanks are grey in the Kashmir bird, chestnut in the Western Koklass, and nearly 

 black in the Nepal form. 



Their habits are similar, and in all parts of their mountainous range we find conifers overhead, and, 

 as in the painting, beds of tall saxifrage pushing up through the fallen needles and cones, their filmy 

 heads nodding in the dim forest light.
