Dusky moorhen

The dusky moorhen (''Gallinula tenebrosa'') is a bird species in the rail family and is one of the eight extant species in the moorhen genus. It occurs in India, Australia, New Guinea, Borneo and Indonesia. It is often confused with the purple swamphen and the Eurasian coot due to similar appearance and overlapping distributions. They often live alongside birds in the same genus, such as the Tasmanian nativehen and the common moorhen.
==Taxonomy==
John Gould described the dusky moorhen in 1846 from a skin collected along the Murray River in South Australia. Its species name is derived from the Latin ''tenebrosa'' "dark". Charles Lucien Bonaparte described ''Gallinula haematopus'' in 1856, but this is now a ''nomen nudum''. Gregory Mathews described two subspecies that have been synonymized—''magnirostris'' from Western Australia and ''subfrontata'' from New South Wales.〔
Three subspecies are recognised: subspecies ''frontata'' from southeastern Borneo, the Sunda Islands, Timor and western New Guinea, subspecies ''neumannii'' from northern New Guinea, and the nominate subspecies from Australia.〔
Common names include dusky moorhen, black gallinule, black moorhen and waterhen.〔
