Pagan Reed Warbler

Acrocephalus yamashinae

The Pagan reed warbler is an extinct species of passerine bird in the family Acrocephalidae, sometimes considered a subspecies of the nightingale reed warbler. It originally occurred on Pagan Island and "was extinct by the late 1970s". More precisely, in the 1970s, the 1980s, in 2000 and in 2010, the bird could not be found and is therefore presumed to be extinct.
