The Mollucan Woodcock or Obi Woodcock, Scolopax rochussenii, is a medium sized wader. It is the largest of the woodcocks, 25% bigger than Eurasian Woodcock. It is marked with large buff spots. This species is restricted to two small islands in the Moluccas, but has not been seen since 1902, and is probably extinct. Nothing is known of its habits.
