	The extinct constellations Turdus Solitarius and Noctua, which share some history and region of the sky, have brief summaries in ''Star Names - Their Lore and Meaning'' by Richard H. Allen (1899, pp. 418-419) and in ''Star Tales'' by Ian Ridpath ~~(1988, p. 151)~~ and have a dedicated chapter in ''The Lost Constellations'' by John C. Barentine (2015, ch. 29, pp. 449-464).

	The classical constellation Hydra ends with the star Pi Hydrae. In early modern time, some astronomers extended the chain of stars towards Libra and even introduced yet another bird on its longer end (as traditionally, the Raven sits on the tail tip of Hydra). The constellation of "Solitaire" was first depicted in Pierre Charles Le Monnier's contribution to the ''[https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k35758/f654.item Histoire de l'Académie royale des sciences ... avec les mémoires de mathématique & de physique... tirez des registres de cette Académie],'' from the French Academy of Science (Académie royale des sciences, Paris) 1776.

	The brightest star of historical "Turdus Solitarius" was Sigma Librae, mag. 3.2, named Brachium by WGSN. It was suggested in 2023 to try naming another of its stars, if we can identify them reliably. The French "Solitaire" is an obvious name to use. The biological relative from the neighboring island, the Dodo, is much more popular and even has an emoji. Perhaps we should use this name, too and commemorate extinct animals. Or maybe use a double star for both, Solitaire and Dodo?		The brightest star of the historical "Turdus Solitarius" was Sigma Librae, mag. 3.2, named Brachium by WGSN.

			==== Translations ====
			In "''Kenntniß zu Anleitung des Gestirnten Himmels''" (in German), Bode 1805 refers to it as "der Vogel Einsiedler" - "the hermit bird". When talking about Le Monnier's original constellation, Jamieson (1822) refers to it as "''L'Ermite Oiseau''" - never referring to it as either Solitaire or Turdus Solitarius.
