Inhabits lowland rainforest of northern New Guinea and Biak Island. Terrestrial frugivore. Vulnerable due to heavy hunting pressure and deforestation.

The ancestor of the domesticated Barbary Dove (ring-necked dove). Granivore of grass seeds and small grains in dry savanna, farmland, and desert edge. Least Concern.
