Columbidae
Columbidae sunt familia avium Columbiformium, circiter 310 species comprehendens, corpore pingue, collo breve, rostro breve et tenue. Plerumque seminibus, fructibus, plantisque vescuntur. Omnem per orbem terrarum praeter Antarcticam habitant, sed maxima diversitas specierum in oecozonis Indomalayana et Australasiatica reperitur.
Familia in 344 speciebus in 49 genera digestis consistit. Tredecim ex speciebus exstinctae sunt.[1]
Columbidae nidos praetenues faciunt, saepe ramulis alioque detritu utentes, quem in ramis arborum, in proiecturis, vel in solo ponere solent, secundum species. Unum vel (plerumque) duo ova semel pariunt, amboque parentes pullos alunt, qui nidum post dies a 25 ad 32 reliquunt. Pulli volare possunt ante quinque hebdomades nati.[2] Plurimarum avium dissimiles, ambo sexus lac ingluviei ad iuvenes alendos faciunt.
Typus familiae est genus Columba.[3]
