About These Birds
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.
Tasmanian Native-hen
Tasmanian Native-hen (Tribonyx mortierii) is a 43–51 cm large flightless rail endemic to Tasmania. Dark olive-brown with white flank spots, red eye, and upright tail. Inhabits grasslands, farmland, and wetland margins. Social; defends territories in small family groups. Grazes mainly on grass and herbs. Vulnerable to predation by introduced foxes.
