... Die mittleren bis hohen Höhenlagen mit gemischten Laub- und Nadelwäldern sind der Lebensraum für die meisten endemischen Arten. Unter ihnen ist der Mikado-Fasan (Syrmaticus mikado), auch König des Nebels genannt, für sein elegantes Gefieder und die zurückgezogenen Gewohnheiten bekannt. Gleichzeitig gilt der Swinhoe-Blaufasan (Lophura swinhoii) als einer der schönsten Vögel der Welt, wurde in dem Artikel hervorgehoben. ..

... Abstract: Zusammenfassung Drei Jahre lang wurde das Balzverhalten von 20 in Volieren gehaltenen Mikado-Fasanen ( Syrmaticus mikado ) beobachtet. Die Hauptbalzzeit war bei den ganzjährig im Freien gehaltenen Fasanen in Mainz (50° N.) März-April. Die Balz der ? bestand nicht wie bisher angegeben im wesentlichen aus einer Lateralpräsentation. Zwar wurde eine solche auch im Rahmen des Balzverhaltens gezeigt, doch stellte sie keine eigentliche Balzleistung dar. ...

Der Mikadofasan (Syrmaticus mikado) ist eine Hühnervogelart aus der Familie der Fasanenartigen. Er ist in den Bergregionen Taiwans endemisch und besiedelt dort Unterwuchs aus Bambus und Rhododendron in Primärwäldern in Höhen zwischen 1600 und 3300 m.
Die Entdeckungsgeschichte ähnelt der des Burmafasans. Auf einer Reise im Hochland von Taiwan entdeckte der britische Naturforscher Walter Goodfellow 1906 zwei Schwanzfedern einer unbekannten Hühnervogelart am Kopfschmuck eines einheimischen Lastenträgers. Dieser sagte, er habe den seltenen Vogel am Alishan erlegt. Auf der Grundlage des Federfundes beschrieb William Robert Ogilvie-Grant die Art als Calophasis mikado. Als Artepitheton verwendete er einen Titel des japanischen Kaisers, unter dessen Herrschaft Taiwan zur damaligen Zeit stand. Bald darauf gelangten dann die ersten Bälge nach Europa.[1] ...

The Mikado pheasant (Syrmaticus mikado) is a gamebird in the pheasant family Phasianidae of the order Galliformes, gallinaceous birds. Sometimes considered an unofficial national bird of Taiwan (along with the Swinhoe's pheasant and Taiwan blue magpie), a pair of Mikado pheasants and Yushan National Park, one of the areas it is known to inhabit, is depicted in the 1000 dollar bill of the Taiwanese dollar.
Distribution and habitat
The Mikado pheasant is endemic to mountainous regions of Taiwan. The species occupies dense shrubs, bamboo growth and grassy terrain with conifer overstory in central and southern Taiwan, from 2000 to 3200 meters above sea level.
Description
With the tail included, males of this species get to be up to 70 cm in body length, while the smaller females measure up to 47 cm. The male is dark with plumage that refracts with blue or violet iridescence, with white stripes on its wings and tail. The female is brown and speckled with brown and white quills. ...

... The Mikado Pheasant, Syrmaticus mikado, is endemic to the mountainous broadleaf, coniferous and mixed forest regions of Central Taiwan, where they can be found at 6,000 ft to 10,000 ft (~2,000-3,200m) elevations.
They are mainly dwellers of thick forest, but seem to also do well in secondary bamboo growth. This species occupies dense shrubs, bamboo growth and grassy terrain with conifer overstory. They will often come out into the open either in light rain or after heavy rain, where the fog often conceals them.
These birds tend to be solitary, often quiet - yet alert. When disturbed, they will often slowly and cautiously seek out shelter within surrounding shrubs, rather than trying to flutter away in a panic. If desperate, they can fly only short distances, diving down the mountainside ...

... Everyone must be familiar with Taiwan’s national bird Syrmaticus mikado, also known as the Mikado Pheasant (Hei Chang Wei Chih 黑長尾雉), that is printed on our $1,000 TWD dollar note. But what you may not know is that the Mikado Pheasants are listed in the Red Data Book as an endangered species by the IUCN in 1966 due to problems of poaching and their habitat around the world being destroyed. They are also being listed by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) as category 1 on the prohibited trading list. ...

... Abstract
Background: The Mikado pheasant (Syrmaticus mikado) is a nearly endangered species indigenous to high-altitude regions of Taiwan. This pheasant provides an opportunity to investigate evolutionary processes following geographic isolation. Currently, the genetic background and adaptive evolution of the Mikado pheasant remain unclear.
Results: We present the draft genome of the Mikado pheasant, which consists of 1.04 Gb of DNA and 15,972 annotated protein-coding genes. ...

... Response: This is an adult male Mikado pheasant, Syrmaticus mikado, a member of the pheasants and partridges family, Phasianidae. The pheasants and partridges are primarily terrestrial birds that are capable of sudden, explosive bursts of flights to escape predators. They are generally strongly dimorphic, with males having very showy plumage whilst the smaller and shyer females of the species are often clad in plainer colours.
The Mikado pheasant is one of five species that are placed into the genus Syrmaticus. These five species have dramatically different plumage colours but are united by having long tails, facial wattles and short spurs on their legs. ... - ... The Mikado pheasant has a very small range and is endemic to Taiwan, where it is revered as the national bird. ...
