 pheasant, and has blue wings.

A Peacock Pheasant. 

 ? Polyplectron Chinquis.

Pucras Pheasant.

The " Mirror " says : It is like the fiyelenggu (No. 129). It is found in Mongolia. Its body 

 is all speckled with black and 3^ellow markings. It has yellow down on the legs. 



David gives Song-ki as the Chinese name for both P. darwinii and P. xanthospila.

Manchu: Niyo coko [lit. marsh-fowl]. 

 Chinese : Shtji chi [lit. water-fowl]. 



The "Mirror" says: It has a black body ; it frequents marshy land ; and has a red fleshy

Zakharoff adds that the head and neck are black, spotted with red, and the breast- 

 bone and wings yellow, spotted with black.

A species of Pheasant. 

 Manchu: Simelen coko. 

 Chinese : Tse chi [lit. marsh bird]. 



The "Mirror" says: Its colouration is black; it has yellow markings; breast yellow. It 

 has no spurs. 



P. de C. says culaq means " manchot , ' ^ i.e., a penguin. The Turkish word culaq means 

 ordinarily one who is without hands. Here I presume it to imply either a pheasant without 

 spurs, or one which flies with difficulty.
