【Abstract】 This paper describes the breeding biology of Pheasant-tailed Jacana in Zhaoqing of Guangdong Province. The result shows that local Pheasant-tailed Jacanas carry out the major reproductive behavior, such as pair bonding, nest building, nest transfer, mating, egg laying, incubation, nestling fostering in the euryale ferox Salisb ponds. We also find that female Pheasant-tailed Jacanas are bigger than male one. A female Pheasant-tailed Jacana can couple with more than one males (1:1.86). Males are in charge of incubation and protection of nestlings. The nestling growing up in 7 or 8 weeks, then they can flight. During the reproduction Pheasant-tailed Jacana shows strong sense of territory. There would be drastic fighting between the host and the invoder.更多还原
