Young.--Green, chin cinnamon; pectoral-band wanting or indicated by a few chestnut feathers; abdomen white or washed with buff; under tail-coverts slightly paler than in the adult. Leclancher's pigeon is generally found in forest and, although widely distributed, it does not occur in great numbers, except when feeding in fruit trees; it appears to be strictly arboreal in habits. Specimens from Camiguin, Calayan, and Batan are considerably larger than specimens from more southern islands. The nest as observed in Camiguin, north of Luzon, was a slight platform of twigs placed on a horizontal branch at from 1.5 to 4.5 meters from the ground. Four nests contained but one egg each. Three eggs are white in color and measure, respectively: 35 by 23, 35 by 25, and 31 by 24. Genus LAMPROTRERON Bonaparte, 1854. Lamprotreron is distinguished from all other Philippine genera by having the breast-feathers bifurcated, as if the tip of the shaft had been cut off of each feather. 29.
