Many species that are not included on this chart are very rare in captivity or there are none in private collections at all. After reviewing the directory, I chose the species that are more commonly kept in collections. For incubation information of the rarer species, please refer to their indvidual fact sheets.
The numerous subspecies of the Lophura leucomelanos, Lophura nycthemera & Phasianus colchicus are not recognized indvidually on this chart, nor are the other recognized subspecies.
