The upland Moa (''Megalapteryx didinus'') was a species of Moa bird endemic to New Zealand. It was a member of the ratite family, a type of flightless bird with no keel on the sternum. It was the last Moa species to become extinct, vanishing around 1500 AD. ==Taxonomy== In 2005, a genetic study suggested that ''M. benhami'', which had previously been considered a junior synonym of ''M. didinus'', may have been a valid species after all.
