In 1868 the Chatham Island snipe was collected by naturalist Charles Traill and was sent to ornithologist Walter Buller who described it as a new species of snipe. On an exploratory mission to the islands in 1871, Henry Travers only found the snipe on Mangere Island.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nzbirds.com/birds/chathamsnipe.html )〕
