Pheasants () are birds of several genera within the subfamily Phasianinae, of the family Phasianidae in the order Galliformes. Pheasants are characterised by strong sexual dimorphism, males being highly ornate with bright colours and adornments such as wattles and long tails. Males are usually larger than females and have longer tails. Males play a part in rearing the young. Pheasants typically eat seeds and some insects. The best-known is the common pheasant, which is widespread throughout the world in introduced feral populations and in farm operations. Various other pheasant species are popular in aviaries, such as the golden pheasant (''Chrysolophus pictus''). ==Species in taxonomic order== This list is ordered to show presumed relationships between species. *Blood pheasant (genus ''Ithaginis'') * *Blood pheasant, (''I. cruentus'') *Koklass (genus ''Pucrasia'') * *Koklass pheasant, (''P. macrolopha'') *Gallopheasants (genus ''Lophura'') * *Kalij pheasant, (''L. leucomelanos'') * * *White-crested kalij pheasant, (''L. l. hamiltoni'') * * *Nepal kalij pheasant, (''L. l. leucomelanos'') * * *Black-backed kalij pheasant, (''L. l. melanota'') * * *Black kalij pheasant, (''L. l. moffitti'') * * *Black-breasted kalij pheasant, (''L. l. lathami'') * * *William's kalij pheasant, (''L. l. williamsi'') * * *Oates' kalij pheasant, (''L. l. oatesi'') * * *Crawfurd's kalij pheasant, (''L. l. crawfurdi'') * * *Lineated kalij pheasant, (''L. l. lineata'') * *Silver pheasant, (''L. nycthemera'') * *Imperial pheasant, (''L. imperialis'') * *Edward's pheasant, (''L. edwardsi'') * *Vietnamese pheasant, (''L. hatinhensis'') * *Swinhoe's pheasant, (''L. swinhoii'') * *Hoogerwerf's pheasant, (''L. hoogerwerfi) * *Salvadori's pheasant, (''L. inornata'') * *Crestless fireback, (''L. erythrophthalma'') * * *Malayan crestless fireback, (''L. e. erythrophthalma'') * * *Bornean crestless fireback, (''L. e. pyronota'') * *Crested fireback, (''L. ignita'') * * *Lesser Bornean crested fireback, (''L. i. ignita'') * * *Greater Bornean crested fireback, (''L. i. nobilis'') * * *Vieilott's crested fireback, (''L. i. rufa'') * * *Delacour's crested fireback, (''L. i. macartneyi'') * *Siamese fireback, (''L. diardi'') * *Bulwer's pheasant, (''L. bulweri'') *Eared pheasants (genus ''Crossoptilon'') * *White-eared pheasant, (''C. crossoptilon'') * *Tibetan eared pheasant, (''C. harmani'') * *Brown eared pheasant, (''C. mantchuricum'') * *Blue eared pheasant, (''C. auritum'') *Cheer pheasant (genus ''Catreus'') * *Cheer pheasant, (''C. wallichi'') *Long-tailed pheasants (genus ''Syrmaticus'') * *Reeve's pheasant, (''S. reevesi'') * *Elliot's pheasant, (''S. ellioti'') * *Mrs. Hume's pheasant, (''S. humiae'') * *Mikado pheasant, (''S. mikado'') * *Copper pheasant, (''S. soemmerringi'') *Typical pheasants (genus ''Phasianus'') * *Green pheasant (''P. versicolor'') * *Common pheasant, (''P. colchicus'') * * * Caucasus pheasants, ''Phasianus colchicus colchicus'' group * * * White-winged pheasants, ''Phasianus colchicus chrysomelas/principalis'' group * * * * Prince of Wales pheasant, ''Phasianus colchicus principalis'' * * * Mongolian ring-necked pheasants or white-winged ring-necked pheasants, ''Phasianus colchicus mongolicus'' group * * * Tarim pheasants, ''Phasianus colchicus tarimensis'' group * * * Chinese ring-necked pheasants, ''Phasianus colchicus torquatus'' group * * * * Taiwan pheasant, ''Phasianus colchicus formosanus'' *Ruffed pheasants (genus ''Chrysolophus'') * *Golden pheasant, (''C. pictus'') * *Lady Amherst's pheasant, (''C. amherstiae'') *Peacock-pheasants (genus ''Polyplectron'') * *Bronze-tailed peacock-pheasant, (''P. chalcurum'') * *Mountain peacock-pheasant, (''P. inopinatum'') * *Germain's peacock-pheasant, (''P. germaini'') * *Grey peacock-pheasant (''P. bicalcaratum'' * *Hainan peacock-pheasant, (''Polyplectron katsumatae'') * *Malayan peacock-pheasant, (''P. malacense'') * *Bornean peacock-pheasant, (''P. schleiermacheri'') * *Palawan peacock-pheasant, (''P. emphanum'') *Crested argus (genus ''Rheinartia'') * *Crested argus, (''R. ocellata'') *Great argus (genus ''Argusianus'') * *Great argus, (''A. argus'') * *Double-banded argus, (''Argusianus bipunctatus '') 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「pheasant」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
