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.
Sakalava Rail
Sakalava Rail (Zapornia olivieri) is a tiny 14–15 cm crake endemic to western Madagascar. Brown above with rufous and grey tones; pale buff below. Inhabits dense freshwater marshes and rice paddy margins in the Sakalava lowlands. Poorly known and rarely recorded.
