自 1876 年在甘肃省首次发现中国特有松鸡 Bonasa sewerzowi 以来,该物种已在中国多个地区被发现;最近一次于1997年在西藏嘉黎县发现。现将其分布范围界定为甘肃、青海、四川、云南和西藏,相当于我国中部海拔2400米至4300米之间的山地针叶林分布区。松鸡的栖息地要求包括两个主要因素;一是用于遮盖的针叶树的存在,二是用于食物的落叶乔木和灌木的存在。由于过去几十年来对原始森林的大规模砍伐,如今松鸡的栖息地严重孤立和破碎。然而,由于中国现在和未来的保护措施,我相信该物种会有更好的未来。
After the first discovery of the endemic Chinese grouse Bonasa sewerzowi in 1876 in the province of Gansu, the species has been found in several areas in China; most recently it was discovered in the county of Jiali in Tibet in 1997. Its distribution area should now be defined as Gansu, Qinghai, Sichuan, Yunnan and Tibet, corresponding to the distribution area of mountain conifer forest in central China between the altitudes of 2,400 and 4,300 m a.s.l. The habitat requirements of the Chinese grouse include two main factors; one is the presence of coniferous trees which are used for cover, and the other is the presence of deciduous trees and shrubs which are used for food. Due to intensive cutting of virgin forests during the past decades, the habitats of the Chinese grouse are heavily isolated and fragmented nowadays. However, due to present and future conservation measures in China, I believe in a better future for the species.
