  KOBDO 
  PHEASANT 
  

  

  Phasianus 
  colckiais 
  hagenbecki 
  Rothschild 
  

  

  Little 
  is 
  known 
  of 
  this 
  form 
  from 
  the 
  Kobdo 
  valley. 
  It 
  very 
  closely 
  resembles 
  pallasi, 
  fifteen 
  

   hundred 
  miles 
  to 
  the 
  east, 
  while 
  to 
  the 
  west 
  it 
  is 
  separated 
  from 
  mongolicus 
  by 
  only 
  a 
  single 
  range 
  

   of 
  mountains, 
  yet 
  it 
  differs 
  radically 
  in 
  colour 
  from 
  that 
  form.
