French Mondains, along with other varieties of Domestic pigeon, domesticated pigeons, are all descendants from the rock pigeon (''Columba livia''). The breed was originally developed in France as a utility pigeon.Seymour, Rev. Colin (Ed)(2006) ''Australian Fancy Pigeons National Book of Standards''.
