The Kauaʻi ʻōʻō is a bird in the Mohoidae family.
---
---
This species became extinct in 1987 and was the last representative of the Mohoidae.
The extinction of this species marks the only complete extinction of an avian family in modern times.
It was endemic to the island of Kauaʻi. It lived in the subtropical forests of the island and nested in cavities inside trees.
It was common until the arrival of predators, disease and deforestation, all caused by humans. The species was rapidly in decline and hurricanes Iwa and Iniki ravaged the last places where the last survivors could nest.

As I already said, I don't really like to make two species that look too much alike ^^'
