Taxobox name Gymnophaps image Papuan Mountain Pigeon 3.jpg image caption Papuan Mountain Pigeon regnum Animalia phylum Chordata classis Aves ordo Columbiformes familia Columbidae genus Gymnophaps genus authority Tommaso Salvadori Salvadori , 1874 Gymnophaps is a genus of bird in the pigeon family Columbidae it includes three species , all called Mountain pigeons. Mountain pigeons live in the forested hills and mountains of certain islands in eastern Indonesia and in the region of Melanesia . They are tree dwellers and eat fruit. A remarkable aspect of these pigeons is that they have bright red skin around the eyes. Otherwise, they are dark gray on the back and wings, with paler heads and undersides. Males and females look mostly alike, though the female Papuan Mountain Pigeon has a grayer belly than the male. Mountain pigeons move around a lot and are often seen flying, usually in Flock birds flocks of at least ten or as many as a hundred or more birds. They are not known to do a lot of loud cooing, rather their vocalizations are muted or wheezy when they make any noise at all. The ranges of the three species do not overlap, so this genus is an example of probable allopatric speciation . Two species are island Endemism endemics the Buru Mountain Pigeon is endemic to the Maluku Islands , and the Pale Mountain Pigeon is endemic to the Solomon Islands archipelago Solomon Islands . The Papuan Mountain Pigeon has a range in between the others it lives on the island of New Guinea and on nearby smaller islands.

The Jambu Fruit Dove inhabits mangrove swamps and lowland rain forests up to 1,500 m and is also found in second growth woodland. The male holds a breeding territory, advertised by raising its wings, bobbing its body and cooing. It will defend its territory with a quick peck if the territorial display fails. The female builds a flimsy nest of twigs, roots and grasses, which are collected by her mate, in a tree and lays one or sometimes two white eggs which are incubated for about 20 days to hatching, with a further 12 or more days to fledging. The Jambu Fruit Dove is 23 27 cm long and weighs about 42 g.

It breeds in most of Sahara sub Saharan Africa except in very arid areas. It undertakes some bird migration seasonal movements in those parts of its range which are subject to drought. No subspecies have been described. Description The adult Black Crake is 19&ndash 23 cm long with a short tail and long toes. As its name implies, the adult has mainly black plumage, with a brown olive tone on the wings and upperparts which is rarely detectable in the field.

Its bill is greenish yellow, and its feet and legs are dull red. The downy chicks are black, as with all rails. The main call of the Black Crake is a duet, starting with a throaty chattering krrrok kraaaa . The response is a dove dove like cooing coo crr COO .
