[QUOTE="GMK, post: 3359662, member: 85596"] Sightings (three) subsequent to 1996 are detailed in Lambert & Kirwan (2006: [url]https://www.researchgate.net/publication/247151672_The_twice-vanishing_pardalote_what_future_for_the_Kinglet_Calyptura_Calyptura_cristata[/url]) and Kirwan & Green (2011). I think at least two of them must be taken seriously. There’s no documentation for either, but that’s true for Oct 1996 too. Leaving aside the physical impossibility for any organism to [I]actually[/I] become extinct [I]twice[/I], the calyptura is arguably as good a candidate as any of a bird species that seemed to come back from the dead, only to disappear again. But, in any case, it seems the courser has been seen comparatively recently: [url]http://www.hbw.com/species/jerdons-courser-rhinoptilus-bitorquatus[/url] As for [I]Sporophila melanops[/I], the long-delayed paper on that wee beastie should appear reasonably soon.
