High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Reunion Fody (Foudia delloni) is an extinct bird species from the family of weavers. It was endemic to the Mascarene island of Reunion. This bird was first mentioned in a report by traveller Gabriel Dellon and a second time in 1674 by Dubois. The species, of which no museum specimen exist was formally described as new species by Anthony Cheke and Julian Pender Hume in the Book Lost Land of the Dodo in 2008. The Reunion Fody was previously mentioned as Foudia bruante by Philipp Ludwig Statius Muller in the work Planches Enluminees in 1776. But after a hypothesis by Cheke and Hume Foudia bruante might be just a colour morph of the Madagascar Fody which appeared on Reunion about 100 years after the discovery of Foudia delloni.
