Fülszöveg
The pheasants are one of the most important groups of birds for man. They include the most abundant domesticated species (the domestic fowl), the most extensively hunted upland game bird (the common pheasant), and some of the most spectacularly beautiful of all large birds, such as the giant argus.
This book gives up-to-date information on the distribution, status, and biology of all the 49 extant species of pheasants. Special attention is paid to the status of vulnerable, rare, and threatened species.
The 53 colour plates in the book show adults of all the pheasant species. They are reproduced from early twentieth-century watercolours by Henry Jones in the possession of the Zoological Society of London, augmented by new watercolours specially painted by Timothy Greenwood for the book. The Jones watercolours, which are of exceptional quality, have not before been reproduced as a set. There are also many line drawings and maps showing the distribution of the various species....
