Long Tails
Various longtailed fowl exist worldwide. These birds (except for the Kuro Gashiwa) are all descended from Japanese stock.

Jangmigye
Jitokko
Kuro Gashiwa
Minohiki
Ohiki
Onagadori
Phoenix
Satsumadori

A nice picture of an Onagadori on a page about Japanese fighting dogs . . . but don't believe the statement about it being a pheasant--chicken cross.
The Asian Gamefowl Society's Yokohama (Minohiki) page
Marc King's great page on Longtail Fowl.
The Deutschland Onagadori Center is a German page about Longtails
This is a picture of a Kureko or Kurekodori rooster -- I'm assuming from the picture that it's one of the Japanese breeds of Longtails
