About These Birds

Hainan Partridge

海南山鹧鸪是中国海南岛特有的濒危鹧鸪,仅分布于海南岛低海拔至中海拔的热带森林中。雄鸟以红色面颊和黑色项链状胸带为特征,体羽棕褐色带复杂斑纹;雌鸟相似但颜色较暗。由于栖息地丧失和过度猎捕,被列为濒危物种,估计种群数量极少。

Found in lowland tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia including Thailand, Malaysia, Sumatra, and Borneo. Forages on the forest floor for fallen seeds, fruits, and invertebrates. Vulnerable; dependent on primary lowland forest, heavily impacted by deforestation and palm oil expansion.
