🐔Himalayan Monal
Der Rostschwanz-Glanzfasan (Lophophorus impejanus), auch Königs-Glanzfasan, Himalaya-Glanzfasan, Gelbschwanz-Glanzfasan, Rostschwanzmonal oder auch Rotschwanzmonal genannt, ist ein in Asien heimischer Hühnervogel, der aber weltweit als Ziervogel gehalten wird. Das Artepitheton impejanus erhielt der Rostschwanz-Glanzfasan zu Ehren von Lady Mary Impey, der Ehefrau von Sir Elija Impey, dem ersten Gouverneur von Bengalen. Der Rostschwanz-Glanzfasan ist – unter dem Namen Danphe – der Nationalvogel Nepals und wird häufig in nepalesischen Liedern erwähnt. Er ist außerdem der Wappenvogel des indischen Bundesstaates Uttarakhand.
