The only endemic heron?

edit
Hello, can someone clarify if there is another heron species endemic to New Zealand (counting any endemic subspecies)? I know the New Zealand population of Australasian Bittern (Botaurus poiciloptilus) was considered a subspecies for some years because of their plumage characteristics differing with the populations from another locations (for example Australia) but this classification became invalid recently, so (as I said) I want to know if any New Zealand endemic heron species still being around. Thanks!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.170.245.56 (talk) 03:49, 11 April 2018 (UTC)Reply 

Incorrect date in taxonomy

Date listed in taxonomy as 1812. This seems incorrect as the remains were not discovered until end of the 20th century. Freakboynz (talk) 07:26, 2 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Check the history if something is obviously impossible. It was vandalism, or a very confused reformatting.115.188.121.224 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 03:20, 19 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
