Oh I wouldn't know exactly but I'd suggest with all the available
species of Gallinules (Rails) around the world and the range of sizes
they encompass, that at least 4 species in a location would be a fairly
common situation for large swampy areas.

At Jerrabomberra Wetlands this afternoon Coots, Purple Swamphens and  
Moorhens (all regular) and Black-tailed Native Hen (occasional visitor).

Which set me thinking, is there anywhere else in the world you can see
four  
spp of gallinule together regularly, or at least once in a while?
