English: Mounted skeletons of a male and female solitaires (Pezophaps solitaria). The specimens are from the Hunterian Museum at the Royal College of Surgeons of England.

The solitaire was a flightless bird indigenous to the island of Rodriguez in the Indian Ocean. It became extinct in the mid-18th century, mainly as a result of hunting by sailors and predation by the cats they introduced to the island.
