The Tongatapu rail (Gallirallus hypoleucus ) was a species of bird in the family Rallidae.

It is known only from brief descriptions of a specimen, now lost, collected from Tongatapu in 1777 in the course of James Cook's third voyage to the Pacific, and from a contemporary illustration by Georg Forster.
