Turacoena is a small genus of doves in the family Columbidae that are found in Indonesia.
The genus was introduced in 1854 by the French naturalist Charles Lucien Bonaparte.[1] The type species is the white-faced cuckoo-dove (Turacoena manadensis).[2][3] The name Turacoena combines the genus name Turacus introduced by the French naturalist Georges Cuvier in 1800 and the Ancient Greek oinas meaning "pigeon".[4]
The genus includes just 3 species.[5]
- White-faced cuckoo-dove (Turacoena manadensis)
- Sula cuckoo-dove (Turacoena sulaensis)
- Black cuckoo-dove (Turacoena modesta)
