Medium, 25–30 cm, ground pigeon with brown upperparts, white-spotted breast, and a bare red-and-yellow facial mask. Inhabits open woodland, grassland, and rocky gorges in central and eastern Queensland and New South Wales, Australia. Granivore of seeds and small grains on the ground. Near Threatened due to altered fire regimes and habitat change.
Medium-large terrestrial pigeon, 30–33 cm, similar to New Guinea Bronzewing but with a white head (not just forehead). Confined to lowland forests of New Britain in the Bismarck Archipelago. Feeds on seeds and fallen fruits on the forest floor. Least Concern.
