The Piton de la Fournaise Volcano Observatory is a volcano observatory in the village of Bourg-Murat on the Island of Réunion that monitors the large basaltic Piton de la Fournaise shield volcano.
The bird is attested to have exclusively occurred on the Plaine des Cafres, the high plateau of Réunion between the Piton des Neiges and the Piton de la Fournaise, from 1700 on at least (Dubois gives no locality information, but all other authors restrict the bird to the plateau).
