About Alectoris
Alectoris is a genus of partridges in the family Phasianidae, closely related to Old World quail, snowcocks, partridge-francolins, bush quail, and sand and see-see partridges. Members of the genus are known collectively as rock partridges. The genus name is from Ancient Greek: αλέκτωρ, translit. alektor, rooster.
