The Réunion swamphen (Porphyrio caerulescens), also known as the Réunion gallinule or oiseau bleu (French for "blue bird"), is a hypothetical extinct species of rail that was endemic to the Mascarene island of Réunion. While only known from 17th and 18th century accounts by visitors to the island, it was scientifically named in 1848, based on the 1674 account by Sieur Dubois. A considerable literature was subsequently devoted to its possible affinities, with current researchers agreeing it was derived from the swamphen genus Porphyrio. It has been considered mysterious and enigmatic due to the lack of any physical evidence of its existence.

  • Das Maskarenen-Purpurhuhn oder Réunionpurpurhuhn (Porphyrio caerulescens, Syn.: Porphyrio coerulescens) ist eine ausgestorbene Rallenart von der Maskarenen-Insel Réunion. Es handelt sich um eine hypothetische Art, das heißt, es existieren keine physischen Belege. Jedoch liegen mindestens vier unabhängige Berichte über diesen Vogel vor, den die Seefahrer als Oiseau Bleu („blauer Vogel“) bezeichneten, darunter von Sieur Dubois (1674), Jean Feuilley (1704), Jean-Baptiste de Villers (1708) sowie Jean-Baptiste Le Gentil de la Barbinais (1717, ergänzt durch den Jesuitenpater Brown im Jahr 1773).

  • Modrzyk reunioński (Porphyrio caerulescens) – gatunek dużego ptaka z rodziny chruścieli (Rallidae). Występował endemicznie na Reunionie. Wymarły, znany wyłącznie z opisów dawnych żeglarzy. (pl)
  • Porphyrio caerulescens, "réunionpurpurhöna", är en utdöd fågelart i familjen rallar inom ordningen tran- och rallfåglar. Den tros ha förekommit på ön La Réunion i Indiska oceanen. Arten är endast känd från reserapporter, varför den vanligen anses vara hypotetisk. Internationella naturvårdsunionen IUCN och BirdLife International erkänner den dock som god art. Den senaste rapporten är från 1724 och fågeln tros ha dött ut kring år 1730. Den minskade i antal troligen på grund av jakt, vilket förvärrades när råttor oavsiktligt infördes till ön 1676. (sv)

  • Porphyrio coerulescens é uma espécie hipotética extinta de ave da família dos ralídeos, endêmica da ilha da Reunião, uma ilha no Oceano Índico a leste de Madagascar. Embora conhecida apenas a partir dos relatos de visitantes da ilha dos séculos XVII e XVIII, foi cientificamente nomeada em 1848, com base na descrição de 1674 de Sieur Dubois. Uma considerável literatura foi subsequentemente dedicada às suas possíveis afinidades evolutivas, e os pesquisadores atuais concordam na sua classificação no gênero Porphyrio. É considerada misteriosa e enigmática devido à falta de qualquer evidência física de sua existência. (pt)
