Mascarene Coot
Mascarene Coot (Fulica newtonii) is an extinct giant coot formerly inhabiting Mauritius and Réunion in the Indian Ocean. Larger than Eurasian Coot; likely flightless or near-flightless. Extirpated by hunting and introduced predators in the 17th–18th centuries. Known from subfossil remains and written accounts by early European visitors.
Rusty-flanked Crake
Rusty-flanked Crake (Laterallus levraudi) is a small 14–16 cm, poorly-known crake endemic to northern Venezuela and Trinidad. Dark brown above; grey breast with distinctive chestnut flanks. Inhabits freshwater marshes and wetland edges in lowland areas. Rare and secretive; few modern records.
