About These Birds
Hainan Partridge
A small partridge (~245 g) of family Phasianidae, with black-and-white facial markings and rufous breast. Endemic to Hainan Island, China. Inhabits tropical and subtropical montane forests, increasingly confined to higher elevations due to lowland deforestation. Forages on the forest floor for seeds and invertebrates. Vulnerable; very restricted island range with severe habitat loss over past decades.
Ferruginous Partridge
A small partridge (~210 g) of family Phasianidae, with rich ferruginous (rust-red) plumage and spotted black-and-white markings. Inhabits lowland and foothill rainforests in Malaysia, Sumatra, and Borneo. Secretive, foraging on the forest floor for seeds and invertebrates. Near Threatened; associated with primary and tall secondary forest, declining with ongoing logging and land conversion.
