Some authors have suggested that the specimen was either a runt of either the Yellow-breasted Fruit Dove or a Treron pigeon, or a hybrid instead of a unique species; however, these views are generally considered invalid due in part to the distinctiveness of the specimen, particularly in the bare skin around the eye, and no proper evidence has suggested that the Negros Fruit Dove is an invalid species.
