The Buru mountain pigeon, formerly also long-tailed mountain pigeon (Gymnophaps mada) is a species of bird in the pigeon family Columbidae. It is endemic to Indonesia and inhabits montane forest and disturbed lowland forest on Buru. It was formerly considered to be conspecific with the Seram mountain pigeon. It is a medium-sized pigeon 33–38.5 cm (13.0–15.2 in) long, and has a blue-grey crown and neck, darker slate-grey upperparts, and a white to pale buff-pink throat and breast that becomes buff-pink towards the belly. The species is slightly sexually dimorphic, with females being smaller and having more dark red on the breast.
The Buru mountain pigeon feeds on fruit. Its breeding season is thought to be from October to December. It is listed as being of least concern by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) on the IUCN Red List due to a sufficiently large range and a stable population. The population is estimated to be 20,000–49,999.
