The purple-winged ground dove is a critically endangered species of dove, native to the Atlantic forest, mainly near bamboo, in south-eastern Brazil, far eastern Paraguay, and northern-eastern Argentina. It is threatened by habitat loss and possibly the wild bird trade, and could potentially even be extinct due to its specialized requirements.
