The male also has bluish-purplish hood with clear ear-tufts, red wattle, and long, pale grey-banded tail. The female is smaller than the male, with a shorter tail, and has brownish black colored plumage, with dark brown feather fringed pale brown.[3] Habitat and distributionIt is found throughout Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu as well as some smaller islands;[3] it has also been introduced in Hawaii[1] and (unsuccessfully) in North America as a gamebird. It inhabits woodlands and forest edges, brush, grassland, and parkland.[3] This species is common and widespread throughout its native range. It often frequents farmlands and human settlements. The introduced populations in Hawaii are stable. Populations in Western Europe have perhaps bred with the common pheasant for a number of years and no pure green pheasants exist there any longer. This species has been crossed with the common pheasant on some game farms in North America and released.[6] GalleryHuntingGreen pheasants may be hunted in their native Japan between November 15 and February 15 by those in possession of a valid hunting license issued by the prefecture in which the hunting is carried out. A valid Japanese Firearms Permit is required if one wishes to use an air rifle or shotgun to hunt with. The bag limit is two male pheasants per day. No shooting of females is permitted.{{cn|date=September 2018}} References1. ^1 2 {{IUCN| version=2015.3| id = 22732650| title = Phasianus versicolor| assessor = BirdLife International| year = 2014| downloaded = 20 September 2015}} 2. ^{{Cite web |url=https://www.itis.gov/servlet/SingleRpt/SingleRpt?search_topic=TSN&search_value=175906 |title=Phasianus versicolor (Vieillot, 1825) |publisher=ITIS |accessdate=2012-04-03}} 3. ^1 2 3 {{cite book | last = Brazil | first = Mark | title = Birds of East Asia | year = 2009| publisher = Christopher Helm | pages = 40–41| isbn = 978-0-7136-7040-0}} 4. ^E.g., {{cite web |url=http://eol.org/pages/900213/hierarchy_entries/53985642/overview |title=Phasianus colchicus versicolor Green Pheasant |work=Encyclopedia of Life |accessdate=20 September 2015}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Kokucho (The national bird)|url=http://www.japanlink.co.jp/ka/symb.htm |work=japanlink.co.jp |accessdate=25 July 2014}} Declared national bird by a non-government body in 1947 6. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.beautyofbirds.com/greenpheasants.html|title=Green Pheasants aka Japanese Green Pheasants|last=Web|first=Avian|website=Beauty Of Birds|access-date=2016-03-20}} External links{{Wikispecies|Phasianus versicolor}}{{Commons|Phasianus versicolor}}
