Small ground dove, 22–25 cm, with brown and grey plumage and a red breast spot. Known only from the Sulu Archipelago in the southern Philippines, with very few modern records. Inhabits lowland forest remnants. Critically Endangered (possibly Extinct) due to near-total forest loss and hunting pressure in the Sulu Islands.
