About These Birds
New Caledonian Rail
New Caledonian Rail (Gallirallus lafresnayanus). Possibly Extinct. Large, flightless or near-flightless rail; brown with dark streaks; last confirmed record in 1890. Endemic to New Caledonia. Threatened by introduced predators, hunting and habitat loss. Searches have failed to locate any survivors.
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.
