Dieffenbach's rail (Hypotaenidia dieffenbachii ), known in the Moriori language as meriki or mehoriki extinct flightless species of bird from the family Rallidae . It was endemic to the Chatham Islands .
Extinction [ edit ]
The only recorded living specimen of Dieffenbach's rail was captured in 1840 by Ernst Dieffenbach , who is commemorated in the scientific and common name of the species. It became extinct due to hunting and introduced predators, perhaps soon after 1872.
Taxonomy [ edit ]
The Dieffenbach's rail was sympatric with the flightless Chatham rail (Cabalus modestus ). Their sympatry suggests parallel evolution after separate colonisation of the Chatham Islands by a common volant ancestor, presumably the buff-banded rail (Hypotaenidia philippensis ).[3] Hypotaenidia [4] Gallirallus
