Mysterious Starling
Aplonis mavornata Buller, WL 1887
The Mauke starling or mysterious starling was a species of starling found on the island of Mauke, Cook Islands. It is now extinct. The binomen is the result of Buller's misreading of the name inornata on the specimen label. As he seems to have genuinely believed this spelling to be correct, the binomial, although it has no meaning, is valid. Source: Wikipedia
