The Manipur bush quail (Perdicula manipurensis quail found in northeastern India and Bangladesh inhabiting damp grassland, particularly stands of tall grass.[2] Allan Octavian Hume on an ornithological expedition to Manipur in 1881.
P. manipurensis is listed as Endangered on the IUCN 's Red List , as its habitat is small, fragmented, and rapidly shrinking.[1]
There was no confirmed sighting of the bird from 1932 until June 2006, when Anwaruddin Choudhury reported spotting the quail in Assam .[3] [4]
BBC News quoted the conservation director of the Wildlife Trust of India , Rahul Kaul, as saying, "This creature has almost literally returned from the dead."[3]
History [ edit ]
A 1911 report by Frank Finn , based on Captain Wood's field notes of 1899, noted that the species was common in the past.[5] lanz-soibol meaning "trap quail".[6]
