The genus Argusianus (Rafinesque, 1815) consist of two species of spectaculary plumaged pheasant with greatly elongated secondaries and central tail feathers.
The Double-banded Argus was described from a portion of a single primary feather found in a batch of Great Argus millinery feathers. It is probably just an aberrant specimen.
