Hi – There appear to be 2 recordings of Ptilinopus cinctus on Xeno-Canto – one from the slopes of Mount Mutis in West Timor, and one (mine) from the remote Banda Sea Island of Damar (both Indonesia).

There are no recordings of P. alligator – but presumably it has a similar call to the very deep “wuu” call of cinctus.

P. alligator has often been included as a subspecies of cinctus and is obviously closely related.
