Crossoptilon 马鸡属

Crossoptilon is a genus of pheasants in the Phasianidae family. Established by Brian Houghton Hodgson in 1838, the genus contains four species:

The name Crossoptilon is a combination of the Greek words krossoi, meaning "fringe" and ptilon, meaning "feather"— a name Hodgson felt particularly applied to the white eared pheasant “distinguished amongst all its congeners by its ample fringe-like plumage, the dishevelled quality of which is communicated even to the central tail feathers”. All are large, sexually monomorphic and found in China.
