Indonesia / Javanese katuranggan
Status: morphology rules active
Named scale morphology definitions can drive deterministic classification when required views are present. Performance meanings remain traditional claims only.

Regional traditional morphology
TGI does not merge every country's terminology into one invented universal rule. Each regional tradition is stored with its own source status, visible definition and limitations.
How to read this section
Visual detection answers what is physically visible. Traditional classification maps that feature to a documented regional name. Traditional interpretation records what historical/breeder sources claim. These are separate from scientifically verified performance.
Vietnamese vảy gà terminology
Status: visual taxonomy partial
Owner-supplied visual references support labels such as Ngũ Quỷ, Huyền Châm, Ẩn Đầu Long, Vấn Sáo and related patterns. External corroboration is still required before these are promoted to consensus-grade rules.

Thailand / Thai Game morphology
Status: breed morphology partial
Use for descriptive body, head, shank and feather morphology only; not for universal performance scores.

India / Pakistan Aseel tradition
Status: breed morphology reference
Supports regional Aseel morphology (eye color transitions, pearl/bloodshot terminology, beak/comb/body/leg color). Does not provide a validated eye/scale-to-performance mapping for the TGI score engine.

Mexico / Latin American gamefowl tradition
Status: pedigree and breed context
Supports breed/pedigree tradition and documents breeder beliefs, while explicitly separating unsupported inheritance claims from verified genetics.

Current reliability rule
A traditional label is never promoted to high-confidence classification merely because it appears in one illustration or one blog. Strong consensus requires multiple independent reviewed morphology sources that substantially agree on the same visible definition.
