| Species name | Recordist | Date | Location | Remarks | Cat.nr. |
| Sclater's Crowned Pigeon - Goura sclaterii | Frank Lambert | 2015-07-25 | Kwatu Lodge (clearing location), Ketu River (Elevala River tributary), Western Province, Western (Papua New Guinea) (40 m) | song - I assume this is the song, a very deep series of mournful notes (& would very hard to make a better recording of a wild bird), very quiet. I was within 8m of the bird (out of sight) making this recording before it flew almost vertically into the canopy - the wing noise at the end is this flight. bird-seen:yes playback-used:no

Whilst I did not see the pigeon making these vocalisations, several local people told me this was the crowned pigeon, including local bird guides. bird-seen:no playback-used:no

| Sclater's Crowned Pigeon - Goura sclaterii | Philippe Verbelen | 2012-10-08 | Kali Muyu river, Boven Digoel, Papua, Papua Province (Indonesia) (50 m) | song - Headphones are required to hear the (distant and low pitched) song of the Southern Crowned Pigeon. Birds were fairly common in this area and often heard vocalising at dusk. Not a great recording to say the least but since so few material is available ...
