Canarian Oystercatcher (Haematopus meadewaldoi) is an extinct oystercatcher formerly endemic to the Canary Islands and Cape Verde. All-black plumage; orange-red bill. Extirpated by the early 20th century through hunting, egg collection, and habitat disturbance. Last confirmed records from Fuerteventura in 1913.
