How to spot
As an extinct species, direct observation is not possible. Its existence is known through paleontological findings.
When to spot
Not applicable as the species is extinct.
This species went extinct shortly after European discovery of Ascension Island, likely due to introduced predators like rats and cats, as well as habitat degradation.
