Range and population
Microgoura meeki was endemic to Choiseul , Solomon Islands , from where it is known from six skins and a single egg³. It has not been recorded since 1904² despite searching and interviews with villagers¹. Its extinction was presumably caused by predation by feral dogs and cats, as suitable habitat survives on the island¹.
