About These Birds
Red Rail
Red Rail (Aphanapteryx bonasia) is an extinct flightless rail formerly endemic to Mauritius. Known from 17th-century illustrations and subfossil bones; chestnut-brown with long curved bill. Closely related to Rodrigues Rail. Extirpated by Dutch settlers and their introduced animals by about 1700.
Marquesan Swamphen
Marquesan Swamphen (Porphyrio paepae) is an extinct flightless swamphen known only from subfossil bones from the Marquesas Islands, French Polynesia. Lost following Polynesian settlement and later European contact. Part of the broader pattern of Pacific island rail extinctions linked to human arrival and introduced rats.
