Malagasy turtle dove

The Malagasy turtle dove (''Nesoenas picturata'') is a bird species in the pigeon and dove family, Columbidae. It is found in British Indian Ocean Territory, Comoros, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mayotte, Réunion, and Seychelles.
==Taxonomy==
The bird has several subspecies. The Rodrigues pigeon, an extinct but fairly enigmatic taxon from Rodrigues on the Mascarenes, was for some time suspected to be another subspecies of ''N. picturata'', but today is generally considered a distinct species ''N. rodericana''.
The pink pigeon (''N. mayeri'') is its closest living relative, and together they form a lineage apart from both the typical pigeons (''Columba'') and the typical turtle doves (''Streptopelia''), slightly closer to the latter if anything. Consequently, either these two are both placed in ''Streptopelia'', or – as is probably the most accurate solution at present – separated as ''Nesoenas''. The present species was in former times sometimes placed in a monotypic genus ''Homopelia''. While this is not outright wrong, if the Rodrigues population is also placed in ''Homopelia'' and ''Nesoenas'' is considered distinct too, it would probably be considered oversplitting by modern authors.〔Johnson ''et al.'' (2001), Cheke (2005), BLI (2008)〕
