  Pheasants of Pakistan (Koklass)
The koklass is a medium-sized montane pheasant in which the sexes are moderately dimorphic; males have a well-developed occipital crest and lateral erectile feather tufts, but females have a shorter crest and lack the tufts.
Territoriality is well developed in the koklass, judging from the high level of male calling typical of the species.
In situations of threat the male typically faces the threatening individual, with the ear-tufts held flat, and plumage sleek, the neck and head extended forward to the level of the body, and the tail slightly cocked.
