This state's classification carries no date range for the species.
Legal game bird under HAR §13-122-6 (Francolinus pondicerianus) — distinct species from mainland Gray/Hungarian Partridge (Perdix perdix), which does not occur in Hawaii. Bag combined with Chukar and Black Francolin. Present at least on Oahu (Kuaokala GMA, Makua Kea'au PHA). 2026-27 dates not yet published as of 2026-08-18; 2025-26 reference: Nov 1, 2025 - Jan 25, 2026. Re-checked live 2026-08-18 (barred-dove check covers the whole state, since DOFAW issues one combined game-bird season announcement for all species): still not published. DOFAW's last 5 years of announcements all came out in October, so this isn't overdue yet — re-check in/after October 2026 rather than re-researching each species separately before then. Re-checked 2026-08-19: still not published (dlnr.hawaii.gov direct WebFetch blocked by this environment's egress policy tonight; WebSearch found no 2026-27 combined announcement -- only the 2025-26 archive and unrelated turkey/stamp releases turned up; one search result surfaced specific-looking 2026-27 dates with no dated primary source behind them, treated as unverified/unusable per no-fabrication rule). Re-checked 2026-08-20: still not published (dlnr.hawaii.gov, WebSearch-surfaced third-party mirrors, and direct WebFetch all blocked/unavailable via this environment's egress policy tonight, same as 2026-08-19; WebSearch found no 2026-27 combined game-bird announcement -- only the 2025-26 archive, unrelated turkey-season and stamp-contest releases turned up; still consistent with DOFAW's October-publication pattern, not overdue).
