![]() Broadly, two different cladograms have been proposed for the Panthera lineage. Subsequent branching in the lineage is disputed. Genetic analysis of hair samples of the two Neofelis species indicates that they diverged 1.4 million years ago, after having used a now submerged land bridge to reach Borneo and Sumatra from mainland Asia. The Neofelis species diverged first from the lineage, followed by the snow leopard. This lineage comprises the species of Panthera and Neofelis.

The scientific name of the clouded leopard is Neofelis nebulosa. “Spiny Babbler” is found in restricted range but till now researchers have reckoned the species aren’t to be under vulnerable category as the thresholds is summarized under the range size criterion. We are home for total of 35 globally threatened species around the world and 19 proximate threatened species and 15 restricted-range species. Up till now Nepal has been recorded to have 867 species of birds, which rounds of to be about 8% of the total bird species found worldwide. ![]() Nepal is blessed with different species of flora and fauna’s nevertheless we are high in numbers of birds too.

The adult male has multicoloured plumage throughout, while the female, as in other pheasants, is dull in colour. The male weighs up to 2380 grams and the female 2150. However, studies have shown that the male Himalayan monal of northwestern India lacks the white rump of other Himalayan monals, and it has more green on the breast, indicating the possibility of a second subspecies. Traditionally, the Himalayan monal has been classified as monophyletic. It was also the state bird of Himachal Pradesh, until 2007. It is the national bird of Nepal, where it is known as Danphe, and state bird of Uttarakhand India, where it is known as Monal.
