The Poultry Club states that its Asil standard concerns the smaller form often called Reza, while warning that some names used abroad do not match Indian usage. Asil, Aseel and Asli are spelling forms in different contexts. The profile should identify the actual population rather than assume that every bird under these labels has one size and outline.
