Beskrivning:
Laysan's Flightless Rail - Another extinct bird documented by the Tanager Expedition. Complete habitat destruction by introduced rabbits on Laysan pre-1923 wiped the species out of it's home area, and an introduced population on Midway died off from the accidental introduction of rats and mosquitos during the Battle of Midway in 1942. The last rail was seen on Eastern Island in Midway in June 1944. (Raozon, 2001).
