Frances Karttunen: 

TŌCHTECOLŌ-TL ringdove / paloma torcaz (Z) [(2)Zp.93,224]. Since neither of the birds generally known as ringdoves are indigenous to Mexico, the gloss does not make a clear identification among the many doves and pigeons of the area. Possibly this is Columba fasciata, a dove with a ring-like marking on the neck. See TŌCH-TLI, TECOLŌ-TL.
