The Tsingy wood rail (Canirallus beankaensis) is a species of bird in the family Rallidae that only was scientifically described in 2011.[2]
It is endemic to areas with dry deciduous forest and limestone karst in the lowlands of west-central Madagascar. It is larger than the Madagascan wood rail, and also differs in the colour of the throat, moustachial stripe and region near the eyes.
