title: Animal sample from Pterocles gutturalis
organism: Pterocles gutturalis
description: The Yellow-throated Sandgrouse (Pterocles gutturalis saturatior) is a member of the Pteroclididae family (ground dwelling birds restricted to treeless, open country) and can be found in many countries in southern and eastern Africa. They are considered fast and tenacious fliers. This sample was collected from a male at the Sharjah Breeding Center in the United Arab Emirates tended by An Pas, of a wild caught animal in Tanzania, and procured by Tom Gilbert (same individual as SAMN02339892 for the 2014 Avian Phylogenomics Project), and used to generate a chromosome level reference assembly as part of the G10K-VGP and B10K Projects.
