About These Birds

Striped Crake

Striped Crake (Amaurornis marginalis) is a small 20–23 cm crake of sub-Saharan Africa. Brown above with white streaks; buff-white below with faint streaking; greenish bill. Inhabits dense freshwater marshes, flooded grassland, and reed beds. Highly secretive and nomadic; detected mainly by call.

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.
