About These Birds
Talaud Rail
Talaud Rail (Gymnocrex talaudensis) is a poorly-known rail endemic to the Talaud Islands in the northern Moluccas, Indonesia. Similar to Blue-faced Rail; brown above with some rufous tones; bare facial skin. Inhabits forest and scrub on small islands. Known from very few specimens.
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.
