It is known for its vibrant plumage, with a green head, purple chest, and yellow underparts. These fruit doves primarily feed on various fruits and berries, and their presence is often indicated by their soft, melodious calls. They are important seed dispersers in their habitats, contributing to the diversity and regeneration of the forest.
