SYNTHESIS Taxonomy, phylogeny, speciation and biogeography are intimately related aspects of guinea-fowl evolution. Their necessary separation under different headings in the present study has been somewhat detrimental to the under- standing of each. Accordingly, this section attempts to synthesize the author's conception of evolution in guinea-fowl (summarized in Fig. 53). Guinea-fowl are characteristically African birds. Although the likely ancestral guinea-fowl was an Asiatic francolin-like phasianid which could live in arid savanna habitat, the evolution that has led to extant guinea-fowl taxa occurred solely in Africa. Moreover, biogeographic patterns derived from.
