Description This poorly known species is only known from two specimens from 1882 and 1927. The holotype from 1882 can be seen in the Australian Museum in Sydney . The length was about 26  cm. The head, the throat, and the breast mantle were beige. The chestnut upperparts with a pale purple sheen on the carpals and the small wing coverts contrasted with a chocolate coloured belly. The Thick billed Ground Dove might have preferred dry beach forests on the Solomon Islands of Makira formerly San Cristobal , and the tiny island of Ramos which belongs to Malaita . It is likely that it also occurred on other islands in that region in the past. It was a ground dweller like its congeners, and so it was an easy prey for introduced rats and feral pigs, cats and dogs. The logging of the lowland forests in its habitat and the hunting sealed its fate. Despite the fact that it was last seen in 1927, the IUCN has long hesitated to declare this species extinct. Many surveys in its former range were undertaken in the later part of the 20th century Dutson, 2003 , but when the last search for this species on Ramos in 2004 had failed too it was officially ... birds in the region.
