The African Lemon-dove or Cinnamon Dove is a bird species in the pigeon family. It differs from the other African pigeons of the genus Columba by its terrestrial habits and the white face and forehead of adult males; it is therefore sometimes separated in the genus Aplopelia. Some treat the Gulf of Guinea populations as a separate species C. simplex, others as subspecies of C. larvata. In the latter case, the species as a whole may be called simply Lemon-dove, and if Aplopelia is considered a valid genus it would then be monotypic.
