White-cheeked Partridge (Arborophila atrogularis)
About the White-cheeked Partridge
The white-cheeked partridge (Arborophila atrogularis) is a species of partridge in the family Phasianidae, native to Asia. It is found mainly in Northeast India, northern Myanmar, and northeast Bangladesh, inhabiting dense undergrowth in primary and secondary evergreen forest; this sometimes includes adjacent areas of scrub, bamboo, grassland and cultivated land. In India, the species occurs generally at altitudes below 750 m, but may be found at up to 1,220 m in South-East Asia. The white-cheeked partridge is currently classified as Least Concern by the IUCN. Population numbers are unknown and believed to be decreasing, but not at a rate fast enough to warrant a Near Threatened status. It is threatened habitat loss and hunting.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 60 recordings for this species: 56 CC BY-NC-ND · 4 CC BY-NC-SA. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.
As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
