Marquesas swamphen (''Porphyrio paepae'') is a presumably extinct species of swamphen from the Marquesas Islands Hiva Oa and Tahuata. It was originally described from 600-year-old subfossil remains from Tahuata and Hiva Oa. It may have survived to around 1900; in the lower right corner of Paul Gauguin's 1902 painting ''Le Sorcier d'Hiva Oa ou le Marquisien à la cape rouge''〔''«() d’Hiva Oa ()»'' as such, is pronounced /diˈva oˈa/, while the Polynesian h is always a /ɦ/: this shows Gauguin had a very poor knowledge of the Polynesian languages. He should have written ''de Hiva Oa''. Despite Polynesian inscriptions, often approximative, Gauguin seems to have been unable to speak any Polynesian languages, as it is said locally.〕 there is a bird which resembles native descriptions of ''Porphyrio paepae''. Thor Heyerdahl claimed to have seen a similar flightless bird on Hiva Oa in 1937. ==Notice==
