This search function groups species by taxonomic family, listing all species in each of their families together with their relatives. Once a family is selected, you can order the species listed by first, last, or scientific name.

This Group contains the familiar game birds-grouse, quail, and pheasants-as well as certain other cryptically colored birds of woodlands, such as the nightjars. Many of these birds are difficult to detect against a background of dead leaves or grass until they flush unexpectedly into the air.
