The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- As previously defined, they were paraphyletic as the genus Pternistis, which was previously included in Francolinus, is more closely related to Old World quails than it is to the other francolins.
- Beginning in 2004, various ornithologists have recommended that it would be clearer to use "spurfowl" for all members of the genus Pternistis and restrict the use of "francolin" to the other species presently or formerly classified in Francolinus.
- When Pternistis is excluded, the francolins form a monophyletic clade that is a sister group to a clade comprising the junglefowl and the bamboo partridges, together, these clades compose the tribe Gallini.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Francolin article was read about 17,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 59 and blocks with 41: each hit it takes is cut by 16 %.
