The superb fruit dove (Ptilinopus superbus), also known as the purple-crowned fruit dove, is a medium-sized, colourful fruit-dove in the family Columbidae. Ptilinopus superbus is sexually dimorphic. Males are superbly coloured with a fiery orange nape, green ears, and a purple crown. Female dovess are mostly green, with a white abdomen, blue wing tips, light blue breast, and a small, dark blue spot on the back of the head. Both sexes have yellow eyes and eye-rings. Despite its colourful plumage, the superb fruit dove is well-camouflaged amongst the rainforest foliage. Native to Australasia, the superb fruit doves live in the rainforests of New Guinea, Australia, Solomon Islands, the Philippines and Sulawesi of Indonesia. Order: Columbiformes > Family: Columbidae > Genus: Ptilinopus > Species: Ptilinopus superbus
