		A fossil species, Gallinula kansarum, is known from Late Pliocene depositis in Kansas.
		In addition, 2 fossil subspecies of extant species have been described: Gallinula chloropus brodkorbi from the Pleistocene of Ichetucknee River, and the doubtfully distinct Gallinula mortierii reperta which refers to the population of the Tasmanian Native-hen that once inhabited mainland Australia.

		USGS wildlife biologists Leilani Takano and Susan Haig recently completed an ongoing research project to understand space use for the Mariana common moorhen (Gallinula chloropus guami) which is the only native wetland-dependent bird species existing on Guam and was listed as endangered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in 1984.
		Most of these species are understudied and exist in extremely low population sizes.
