"This florid dove has also been called Temminck’s fruit pigeon since 1823, after the Dutch zoologist whose father traveled Indonesia for many years with the Dutch East India Company and amassed an extensive bird collection. The birds are a common sight in the upper montane forests of Sumatra, Java, and Bali, and although they are usually solitary, they occasionally gather in large flocks at fruiting."
