No, they are entirely different species. There are many species of dove, and there are many species of partridge. Doves are all in the family Columbidae (along with pigeons), and there are many subfamilies and genera. Sometimes, members of one genus are interchangeably called "doves" and "pigeons." Even the common domestic pigeon and its feral ("wild") descendants belong to the species Columba livia, yet the wild ancestor is called the "rock dove," and it belongs to the same species. (The domestic and feral forms are often classed as the subspecies C. l. domestica.) Partridges are all in the family Phasianidae, but many members of this family are never called partridges, such as chickens, turkeys, and pheasants. Strictly speaking, the true partridges are natives of the Old World, and some, such as the chukar partridge, have been introduced into the Americas. Some New World quail and grouse are colloquially called "partridges." See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partridge http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dove
There is no true scientific difference between 'pigeons' and 'doves'. While the smaller pigeons often get called 'doves', this is fairly inconsistent. The family can be split into two different groups, but this is based more on their ecology and diet. There are those pigeons that feed on seeds (usually duller coloured, ground-dwelling pigeons), and those that feed on fruit (more striking, aboreal species). The Daintree area has a diverse group of pigeons, with representatives of both types of pigeons, although many species are heard more often than seen.
Often, yes. The terms are somewhat interchangeable, unless one is talking about a specific species.
yes and it would be called a pove or a digeon
They are not the same breed. Pigeons are larger, being two times the size. Even though they have the same habit and look alike, they are not the same breed of birds.
The family Columbidae is made up of several species. The smaller species are called doves, the larger one pigeons. The common pigeon of city streets and parks is the European rock dove.
Yes they are.
yes they are.
They will belong to either the same family or species.
They are considered to be in the same species.
No; if they belong to the same genus then they have to belong to the same family.
No; if they belong to the same genus then they have to belong to the same family.
No; if they belong to the same genus then they have to belong to the same family.
No, they are different species but belong to the same genus of Panthera.
Organisms that belong to the same class are of the same species. They will be able to reproduce without a problem.
=)Population: when a localized group of organisms belong to the same species. (=
conspecific: Two or more individual organisms, populations, or taxa are conspecific if they belong to the same species.
No, but they both belong to the canid family.
No. There are many species of frogs and toads. They belong to amphibian family, along with salamanders.
