South Island Takahe
South Island Takahe (Porphyrio hochstetteri) is a 50–63 cm flightless swamphen endemic to New Zealand's South Island alpine tussock grasslands. Deep blue-green plumage with green-brown back; massive red bill and frontal shield. Rediscovered in Fiordland in 1948 after presumed extinction.
Kosrae Crake
Kosrae Crake (Zapornia monasa) is an extinct flightless rail formerly endemic to Kosrae in the Caroline Islands, Micronesia. Known from bones and a single 19th-century description. Dark plumage, reduced wings. Extirpated following Polynesian and later European settlement; likely lost to introduced rats and cats.
