Marche's fruit pigeon was described in 1880 from a single specimen which remained unique for fifteen years when Whitehead rediscovered the species in Lepanto. So far as we at present know, this species is confined to this subprovince and the neighboring subprovince of Bontoc. The Igorots say that at certain seasons of the year these birds become very fat and heavy and that they are then taken by pursuing them until they are exhausted. This account is probably correct as the specimens seen in the possession of the Igorots are not injured, while birds taken in snares or with bird-lime are seldom fit for specimens. This species may be recognized at once by the large red patch on the secondaries. In 1903 a pigeon, probably of this species, was killed in Bontoc by the Hon. Dean C. Worcester but the skin was lost. 28. LEUCOTRERON LECLANCHERI (Bonaparte). BLACK-CHINNED FRUIT PIGEON. Treroloema leclancheri Bonaparte, Compt. Rend. (1855), 41, 247.
