Mangareva Reed Warbler

Acrocephalus astrolabii

The Mangareva reed warbler or Astrolabe reed warbler is a presumed extinct songbird that existed on Mangareva in the Gambier Islands. It is known from only two specimens, and is believed to have gone extinct in the mid-19th century, likely due to deforestation and the introduction of exotic predators.
