Variegated Pheasant. Lath. Gen. Syn. ii. p. 7 1 6 . No. 4 . 
This subject is a mixed breed, between the white and common Pheasant, 
which it exactly resembles in size and shape, the only difference being in 
its colour, winch is of a pure white, variegated with irregular blotches of 
chesnut, kc. as expressed in the Plate. 
Its habits are likewise the same, though they are considered as being 
more delicate, and of course less able to bear the severity of the winter : 
they are nevertheless much valued, as forming a pleasing variety in every 
collection, though they are not so proper for propagation.
