Sula Cuckoo-Dove

Turacoena sulaensis

The Sula cuckoo-dove, known scientifically as Turacoena sulaensis, is a distinguished member of the Columbidae family. This avian species is uniquely native to the Sula Islands and the Banggai Archipelago within the enchanting realm of Indonesia.

Identification Tips

When observing the Sula cuckoo-dove, one should note that prior to the year 2016, it was regarded as a mere subspecies of the white-faced cuckoo dove. However, it has since been recognized as a distinct species, a testament to the ever-evolving understanding of avian biodiversity.

Habitat

The Sula cuckoo-dove graces the Sula Islands and the Banggai Archipelago, where it has evolved and adapted to the local conditions, making these Indonesian islands its exclusive home.

Distribution

Endemic to its Indonesian range, the Sula cuckoo-dove is a species that has carved out a niche for itself in the Sula Islands and the Banggai Archipelago, a testament to the rich tapestry of life that thrives in these isolated locales.

Conservation status

As of my knowledge cutoff in 2023, the conservation status of the Sula cuckoo-dove has not been explicitly detailed. However, as with all species with a limited range, one must consider the potential vulnerability to environmental changes and human activities.

Learning Birding with Birda
I’m relatively new to birding as a hobby, and Birda is a great way to keep track off all the species I see. I’m still working on my ID skills, but the app is great for figuring out potential species, and the online community is so friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend Birda to both early and serious birders! 🐦
