Miocene, Neogene, Iberia, Phasianidae, Miophasianus, PalaeoperdixAbstract
The occurrence of two genus of phasianids in some Miocene localities of Spain are reported. The fossil remains from two of the outcrops, Can Mas and Hostalets, were studied long time ago, and it seemed suitable to reconsider their corresponding taxonomical identifications.
