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.
Ascension Crake
Ascension Crake (Mundia elpenor) is an extinct flightless rail formerly endemic to Ascension Island in the South Atlantic. Known from early 17th-century descriptions by Portuguese sailors; no physical specimens survive. Dark plumage; reduced wings. Extirpated rapidly after human arrival and introduction of cats and rats, likely by the mid-1600s.
