This species is resident in Australia where numbers are believed to be in decline. A subspecies, the Abrolhos painted buttonquail ("Turnix varius scintillans"), is endemic to the Houtman Abrolhos islands. The painted buttonquail was first described by the English ornithologist John Latham in 1801 under the binomial name "Perdix varia". The painted buttonquail is about long. It is a ground-dwelling bird and is found in grassy forests and woodlands. It feeds on insects and seeds,

Neighboring Minnesota, where trappers collected more than 300,000 painted turtles during the 1990s, commissioned a study of painted turtle harvesting. Scientists found that harvested lakes averaged half the painted turtle density of off-limit lakes, and population modeling suggested that unrestricted harvests could produce a large decline in turtle populations. In response, Minnesota forbade new harvesters in 2002 and limited trap numbers. Although harvesting continued, subsequent takes averaged half
