The black-chinned fruit dove (Ptilinopus leclancheri), also known as the black-throated fruit dove or Leclancher's dove. It is found in the lowland forests of the Philippines and Taiwan.


Description and taxonomy

[edit]

It is a medium-sized (up to 27 cm (11 in) long) bird of the family Columbidae. The male is a colorful bird with a green belly and wings, a brown tail, a whitish grey head and neck with a purple base, red iris and a small black patch under its yellow bill. The female has a green head, neck and breast.

EBird describes its song as "deep, throaty “rrrooooooo” that does not carry far."[2]

Subspecies

[edit]

Four subspecies are recognized:[3]


Behaviour and ecology

[edit]

The diet consists mainly of fruits. The female usually lays a single white egg in a nest made of twigs.[3]

Habitat and conservation status

[edit]

Its natural habitats at tropical moist lowland primary forest and secondary forest up to 1,000 meters above sea level.

The black-chinned fruit dove is distributed in lowland forests up to 700 meters above sea level in Taiwan and the Philippines, where it is fairly common. On Taiwan, it is very rare, known only from four specimens.[4]

IUCN has assessed this bird as least-concern species with the population believed to be declining due to deforestation in the Philippines continues throughout the country due to slash and burn farming, mining, illegal logging and habitat conversion. It is also caught for the illegal wildlife trade and hunted for meat. [5]
