Andean Coot (Fulica ardesiaca) is a 38–43 cm coot of Andean high-altitude wetlands in Peru, Bolivia, and northern Chile, typically above 3,000 m. Dark slaty-grey with white bill and frontal shield, often with yellow-orange shield in breeding season. Inhabits puna lakes and bofedales. Feeds on aquatic plants.
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.
