The Maupiti Monarch is a small bird of the monarch family. It lived only on one island in the Pacific Ocean and hunted insects in the forest.
The Maupiti Monarch differed from related species in its dark coloration and narrow distribution only on one island. It was an important link in the island's nature, eating insects and helping maintain forest balance.
Legendary longevity: over 100 years. Galapagos tortoises, Greenland sharks, ocean quahogs celebrate with family once every 4 years
