Exempel på hur man kan använda CURASSOWS i en mening

• The order contains about 290 species, inhabiting every continent except Antarctica, and divided into five families: Phasianidae (including chicken, quail, partridges, pheasants, turkeys, peafowl (peacocks) and grouse), Odontophoridae (New World quail), Numididae (guinea fowl), Cracidae (including chachalacas and curassows), and Megapodiidae (incubator birds like malleefowl and brush-turkeys).
• Phylogenetically, they branched off from the core Galliformes after the Cracidae (chachalacas, guans, and curassows) and before the Odontophoridae (New World quail).
• In line with the other 3 main lineages of cracids (chachalacas, true guans, and the horned guan), mt and nDNA sequence data indicates that the curassows diverged from their closest living relatives (probably the guans) at some time during the Oligocene, or c.
• The grey-headed chachalaca (Ortalis cinereiceps) is a member of an ancient group of birds of the family Cracidae, which includes chachalacas, guans, and curassows.
• The guans and curassows live in trees, but the smaller chachalacas are found in more open scrubby habitats.
• The little chachalaca (Ortalis motmot) is a bird in the family Cracidae, the chachalacas, guans, and curassows.
• The position of Penelopina and Chamaepetes - peculiar genera of which the former, uniquely among guans and more in line with curassows, shows pronounced sexual dimorphism - relative to each other is not determinable with certainty at present, but all evidence suggests that they are the basalmost guans.
• Birds seen regularly in the park include great curassows, scarlet macaws, white ibis, roseate spoonbills, anhingas, jabirus, and wood storks.
• The peninsula has been designated an Important Bird Area (IBA) by BirdLife International because it supports significant populations of great curassows, lesser ground-cuckoos, Hudsonian whimbrels, Pacific screech-owls, Hoffmann's woodpeckers, orange-fronted parakeets, long-tailed manakins, white-throated magpie-jays and banded wrens.
• The park has a variety of wildlife, such as over 300 species of birds, such as the three-wattled bellbird (Procnias tricarunculata) and emerald toucanet (Aulacorhynchus prasinus), and also various quetzals, curassows, eagles, etc.
• The genus Pauxi consists of the three species of helmeted curassows, terrestrial black fowl with ornamental casque on their heads.
• The wattled curassow (Crax globulosa) is a threatened member of the family Cracidae, the curassows, guans, and chachalacas.
• There are also two large pyramidal aviaries that house songbirds and tropical birds, specially those found in Mexico such as horned guans, great curassows and West Mexican chachalacas.
• They somewhat resemble the guans, and the two have commonly been placed in a subfamily together, though the chachalacas are probably closer to the curassows.
• They have also produced hybrids with peafowl, chachalacas, capercaillie, grouse, quail, curassows, pheasants and guans.
• The guans and curassows live in trees, but the smaller chachalacas are found in more open scrubby habitats.
• The guans and curassows live in trees, but the smaller chachalacas are found in more open scrubby habitats.
• The guans and curassows live in trees, but the smaller chachalacas are found in more open scrubby habitats.
• The guans and curassows live in trees, but the smaller chachalacas are found in more open scrubby habitats.
• The guans and curassows live in trees, but the smaller chachalacas are found in more open scrubby habitats.
