Seram Mountain Pigeon

Gymnophaps stalkeri (Ogilvie-Grant, 1911)

Columbidae — Pigeons, Doves

Seram Mountain Pigeon, Gymnophaps stalkeri, is a pigeon of montane Seram in the Moluccas, within Australasia. It belongs to the family Columbidae and was described by Ogilvie-Grant in 1911. It is confined to hill forest on Seram and was once treated as part of the Buru mountain pigeon before being separated because it looks different. The species is known from old-growth montane forest, where a nest was recorded in September and held a single egg.
