About These Birds
Mascarene Coot
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.
Spot-flanked Gallinule
Spot-flanked Gallinule (Porphyriops melanops) is a small 22–25 cm rail of southern South America's marshes and reed-beds. Dark olive-brown above with white-spotted flanks, grey face, and short red-tipped yellow bill. Frequents still or slow-moving freshwater wetlands in Argentina, Uruguay, southern Brazil, and Chile.
