Bermuda Night Heron
The Bermuda Night Heron was an extinct night heron endemic to Bermuda, known only from subfossil remains recovered from cave deposits.

It became extinct following the arrival of European settlers and the introduction of predatory mammals.
Ascension Night-heron
The Ascension Night-heron was a flightless heron known from subfossil remains on Ascension Island in the South Atlantic. Weighing an estimated 624g, it was likely driven to extinction by human activity and introduced predators. It is currently listed as Not Evaluated by conservation assessments.
