About These Birds
Swinhoe's Rail
Swinhoe's Rail (Coturnicops exquisitus) is a tiny 13–14 cm rail of East Asia and Siberia. Streaked brown plumage with a buffy face; very small and quail-like. Breeds in Siberia, Manchuria, and Mongolia; winters in south-east China, Korea, and Japan. Inhabits wet grassland, rice paddies, and sedge marshes. Extremely secretive; rarely detected.
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.
