Spilopelia is a genus of doves that are closely related to Streptopelia, yet distinguished from them by differences in morphology and behavior. Some authors have argued that Stigmatopelia is the valid name as it appears in an earlier line although also erected by the Swedish zoologist Carl Sundevall,[1][lower-alpha 1][3] but Richard Schodde and Ian J. Mason in their zoological catalogue of Australian birds chose Spilopelia citing clause 24(b) of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN) which supports the decision of the first reviser.[4][5] The name Spilopelia combines the Ancient Greek spilos meaning "spot" and peleia meaning "dove".[6]

	Streptopelia decaocto

	Streptopelia roseogrisea

Streptopelia decipiens

	Streptopelia capicola

	Streptopelia vinacea

Streptopelia semitorquata

	Streptopelia hypopyrrha

	Streptopelia turtur

Streptopelia orientalis

Streptopelia bitorquata

Streptopelia tranquebarica

Columba

	Nesoenas mayeri

	Nesoenas picturata

	Spilopelia chinensis

	Spilopelia senegalensis

Patagioenas

A phylogenetic position based on Johnson et al. (2001). A second possibility is that Columba is a sister of Streptopelia but the remaining clades appear to be monophyletic.[7]

Species

The genus includes just two species:[8]

Spotted dove, Spilopelia chinensis
Laughing dove, Spilopelia senegalensis

Some ornithologists split the spotted dove into the eastern spotted dove (Spilopelia chinensis) and the western spotted dove (Spilopelia suratensis).[9][10]

Notes

The title page of Sundevall's book gives the year as 1872. The book was issued in two parts and the second part from page 74 that includes Spilopelia was published in 1873.[2]
