Abstract
Microstructure of the contour feathers (remex and covert) of 9 species has been compared:
Bonasa bonasia, Tetrao urogallus, Lagopus lagopus, Lyrurus tetrix, Coturnix coturnix,
Perdix perdix, Francolinus francolinus, Phasianus colchichus, Gallus gallus domesticus.
Feathers (one remige and one covert feather) from 3–15 specimens of each species
have been studied. It is shown, that the length of a wing varies considerably, positively
correlating with the size of birds.
