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.

Dark grey-black with brown back, bold red frontal shield, yellow-tipped red bill, and white flank stripe. Inhabits freshwater marshes, ponds, and slow rivers. Swims and walks with bobbing head motion. Feeds on aquatic plants and invertebrates.
