Abstract

Silver pheasant's choice of night roosts and their night-roosting behavior were studied .The results indicated that the night roosts of silver pheasant were evergreen arbors near mountain valley , mainly including Cyclobatanolpsis glauca , Castanopsis eyrei , Castanopsis sclerophylla and Cinnamomum camphora , etc .The nightroostingtime differed in different seasons and weathers .It was 72 minutes longer in autumn and winter than in spring and summer , and 43 minutes longer in rainy day than in sunny day .The night roosting was related to illumination .It began at dusk when the illumination was below 5 lx and ended in the early morning when the umination was over 5 lx .The night roosts should be at the elevation between 600 -900 m and slope between 30- 45.[ Ch , 1 fig .4 tab .8 ref .]
