THE BIRDS OE AUSTRALIA. 
The above is all that seems to be known of the life-history of this 
pigeon. 
The bird figured and described is a female collected near the head of the 
west branch of the South Alligator River, Northern Territory, by Mr. J. T. 
Tunney on May 22nd, 1903. The specimen was kindly lent me by the Hon. 
Walter Rothschild.
