HYBRIDIZATION & ZOOGEOGRAPHIC PATTERNS IN PHEASANTS PAUL A. JOHNSGARD The purpose of this paper is to infonn members of the W.P.A. of an unusual scientific use of the extent and significance of hybridization among pheasants (tribe Phasianini in the proposed classification of Johnsgard~ 1973). This has occasionally occurred naturally, as for example between such locally sympatric species pairs as the kalij (Lophura leucol11elana) and the silver pheasant (L. nycthelnera), but usually occurs "'accidentally" in captive birds, especially in the absence of conspecific mates. Rarely has it been specifically planned for scientific purposes, such as for obtaining genetic, morphological, or biochemical information on hybrid haemoglobins (Brush. 1967), trans­ ferins (Crozier, 1967), or immunoelectrophoretic comparisons of blood sera (Sato, Ishi and HiraI, 1967). The literature has been summarized by Gray (1958), Delacour (1977), and Rutgers and Norris (1970). Some of these alleged hybrids, especially those not involving other Galliformes, were inadequately doculnented, and in a few cases such as a supposed hybrid between domestic fowl (Gallus gal/us) and the lyrebird (Menura novaehollandiae) can be discounted.

  • Status Report on Indonesian Galliformes
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by KUKILA STATUS REPORT ON INDONESIAN GALLIFORMES Compiled by D.A. Holmes Introduction This is a preliminary report on the status of galliformes in Indonesia, which has been prepared with three objectives: to alert conservationists to areas of danger, to demonstrate the paucity of data for most species, and to serve as a basis for updating Information. An IUCN/ICBP Red Data Book 'category is given for each species (endangered, vulnerable, rare, Indeterminate and out of danger), but it cannot be too strongly emphasized that this category, which refers only to Indonesia, is PROVISIONAL; in many cases it 1s little more than a guess. Against each species is also stated whether or not -it is protected under Indonesian law. Direct human Intervention is believed to threaten especially the megapodes, which are heavily exploited for their eggs. Traditionally this has been done on a more or less sustainable basis, but there is accumulating evidence that any sharp increase in rural population, for example on government-sponsored transmigration schemes or spontaneous inflow of farmers from other regions, may quickly result in extermination of populations locally, especially for those megapodes that breed colonially. R. Dekker (pers. comm.) states that any one species may give an impression of being common, but if these are only adult birds, it is possible that the eggs are already being over-harvested and the population is not being replaced. Thus surveys, mapping, monitoring and management of breeding sites of certain species may be an urgent priority. Loss of habitat is the second main threat for all galliformes that are dependent on a forest habitat; this applies especially to the lowland specialists, island endemics, and those intolerant of disturbance through logging.

  • Polyplectron Schleiermacheri
    Threatened birds of Asia BORNEAN PEACOCK-PHEASANT Polyplectron schleiermacheri Critical — Endangered C1; C2a Vulnerable A1c,d; A2c,d This elusive species’s status is difficult to judge, but recent anecdotal evidence regarding its range and habitat indicates that it has a very small, fragmented and declining population, justifying its classification as Endangered. DISTRIBUTION The Bornean Peacock-pheasant (see Remarks 1) is endemic to the island of Borneo, where it has been recorded to date from Sabah and Sarawak, Malaysia, and Kalimantan, Indonesia. The following account has drawn extensively on a compilation of important new evidence by Sözer et al. (ms a), as part of the results of their “Kalimantan Pheasant Project”, and grateful acknowledgement is made here to the authors for free access to this material. Records are from: ■ MALAYSIA ■ Sabah (see Remarks 2) Paitan river (Paitan or Paitan Bay on some labels), July and December 1892 (Gore 1968, 10 specimens in AMNH, BMNH, with three more undated ones in SMF, SNMS; see also Population); Tongod (Ulu Tongod Forest Reserve), near Telupid, January 1996 (G. W. H. Davison in litt. 1999); near the Sukau river, recently, based on a guide recognising the species from a video of Malaysian Peacock-pheasant Polyplectron malacense and describing the differences correctly (J. Corder in litt. 1999), this record being treated here as provisional; ■ Sarawak Trusan river, by report (Moulton 1914); near (on a footpath leading down from) Bario, in the late 1970s (D. Labang per P. J. K. McGowan in litt. 2000, also McGowan and Garson 1995; see Remarks 3); central Sarawak “well up toward the Dutch border” (Beebe 1918–1922), probably the upper Rejang (and hence above Belaga in Smythies 1957), in which area the local people (Punan Busang) in the Danum–Linau area at 300–1,000 m claim to know the species (Fogden 1965, Harrisson 1965, Smythies 1981, van Balen and Holmes 1993, Smythies and Davison 1999; but see Remarks 4); Nanga Gaat, c.100 km from Kapit, around 1990 (Z.

  • Near Threatened Species NEAR THREATENED SPECIES
    Near Threatened species NEAR THREATENED SPECIES 2483 Threatened birds of Asia DWARF CASSOWARY Casuarius bennetti occurs in New Guinea (Papua, formerly Irian Jaya, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea) and, presumably as a long-established introduction, on New Britain, where it is a forest species occurring into the mountains and occasionally to the treeline at 3,600 m (Coates 1985, Beehler et al. 1986). Although probably tolerant of moderate habitat degradation, logging opens up previously inaccessible areas to hunters; despite heavy hunting pressure, it remains relatively common over a wide altitudinal range (Coates 1985, Beehler et al. 1986, B. M. Beehler in litt. 2000, A. Mack in litt. 1999). It is judged to have a substantial population and to be declining more slowly than the other larger and more lowland cassowaries Casuarius.

  • Breeding and Managing Pheasants
    Chapter 5 Keeping chicks alive – parent or broody reared At times, it can seem that pheasant chicks find every possible way to kill themselves or to get themselves killed. They seem to escape from the aviary through the smallest of holes, stand next to the wire dividing aviaries and get pecked by neighbouring adults or just stand out in the rain and get too wet to survive. Parent-reared chicks seem to have fewer problems but can still wander off from their mother and chill quickly. Predicting where and when problems can occur can frequently make the difference between keeping the chicks alive and losing them. The parent or broody hen provides warmth and shelter. Chicks and parents need to learn this, so limit the brooding range initially and ensure that they will not get wet if it rains. Ensure there are no obstacles where chicks can get lost – the parent can fly, but the chick can’t. Pheasants can’t count, so can easily lose chicks – however, they usually respond very rapidly to alarm calls from their chicks. Place food and water in easily accessible areas. Supply food in a shallow container where the chicks can feed easily, but remember that the parents of some species will also use this as a food source, so check that food is always available Acquire mealworms and chick crumbs before the predicted hatch date – hard boiled egg can also be very palatable and good for young chicks Provide clean water in a container that is accessible to chicks, but where they won’t get wet – pebbles make good stepping stones.
