An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org:8891

Forbes's snipe (Coenocorypha chathamica) was a species of New Zealand snipe endemic to the Chatham Islands. It was the larger of two species found there, the smaller being the surviving Chatham snipe. It was never seen alive by scientists and is known only from fossil material collected on the islands. Why it became extinct while its smaller relative survived is a mystery, as is the exact timing of its extinction, although it may have survived, unnoticed, until the 15th century.

  • Coenocorypha chathamica est une possible espèce éteinte d'oiseaux limicoles appartenant à la famille des Scolopacidae. En 2015, elle n'est reconnue que par une seule autorité taxonomique : la classification de Clements (6e édition, révisée 2014). Cette espèce est désormais éteinte, sans que l'on sache avec certitude ni la date ni la cause de cette disparition. Elle n'est connue des scientifiques que par des fossiles. (fr)
