Everything about other recently extinct animals.

Moderators: Administrators, Global Moderators

Not only animals have become extinct in recent times (Holocene extinctions / 8000 BC - present)! Also many plants and other organisms. Here you can discuss everything on recently extinct plants, fungi, lichens, and red algae.

Moderators: Administrators, Global Moderators

The following species and subspecies have been described from early travellers' tales or descriptions, or known from one or very few specimens that might be hybrids or aberrant individuals. They have been listed as extinct in various sources, but are dubious in that they are likely to be only distinct at the subspecific level, or not valid at all.

Moderators: Administrators, Global Moderators

Sub-board: Hypothetical Extinct Birds

Nowadays new research, especially DNA research, reveals that many so-called extinct species and subspecies are not distinct from others. This boards contains posts on formerly recognised extinct animals that appear to be just local colour morphs, miss-identified species, etc.
