CHINESE KING-NECKED PHEASANT. 



PHASIANUS TORQUATUS, J. F. Gmelin. 



Phasianus torquatus, J. F. Gmelin, S. N. i. p. 742. 



Introduced into this country from China about the end 

 of the last century, and now so mixed with P. colchicus 

 that hardly any birds are found that do not show some 

 evidence of the cross. 



The Plate represents the true P. torquatus.
