''Arborophila'' is a genus of bird in the Phasianidae family. The genus has the second most members within the Galliformes after ''Francolinus'' although Arborophila species vary very little in bodyily proportions with different species varying only in colouration/patterning and overall size. These are fairly small, often brightly marked partridges found in forests of eastern and southern Asia.〔 Some species in this genus have small ranges, and are threatened by habitat loss and hunting. ==Species== While most species in this genus are highly distinctive and their taxonomic treatment is settled, there are three complexes where the species limits have not been entirely resolved and to various degrees are disputed: ''A. orientalis–sumatrana–campbelli–rolli'' complex, ''A. cambodiana'' complex, and ''A. chloropus–merlini–charltonii'' complex.〔 ''A. torqueola'' is always called the hill partridge or common hill-partridge, but in all other species "hill" is often disregarded (for example, ''A. rufipectus'' is variously known as the Sichuan hill-partridge or Sichuan partridge). * Hill partridge (''Arborophila torqueola'') * Sichuan partridge (''Arborophila rufipectus'') * Chestnut-breasted partridge (''Arborophila mandellii'') * White-necklaced (or collared) partridge (''Arborophila gingica'') * Rufous-throated partridge (''Arborophila rufogularis'') * White-cheeked partridge (''Arborophila atrogularis'') * Taiwan partridge (''Arborophila crudigularis'') * Hainan partridge (''Arborophila ardens'') * Chestnut-bellied partridge (''Arborophila javanica'') * Grey-breasted (or white-faced) partridge (''Arborophila orientalis'') * Sumatran partridge (''Arborophila sumatrana'') * Malaysian (or Campbell's) partridge (''Arborophila campbelli'') * Roll's partridge (''Arborophila rolli'') * Bar-backed partridge (''Arborophila brunneopectus'') * Orange-necked partridge (''Arborophila davidi'') * Chestnut-headed partridge (''Arborophila cambodiana'') * * Siamese partridge (''Arborophila (cambodiana) diversa'') * Red-breasted (or Bornean) partridge (''Arborophila hyperythra'') * Red-billed partridge (''Arborophila rubrirostris'') * Green-legged partridge (''Arborophila chloropus'') * Vietnam partridge (''Arborophila merlini'') * Chestnut-necklaced partridge (''Arborophila charltonii'') 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「Arborophila」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
