Egyptian Plover
The Egyptian Plover, Pluvianus aegyptius, is a wader, the only member of the genus Pluvianus (Vieillot, 1816). Formerly placed in its own monotypic family Pluvianidae, it is now regarded as the sole member of the subfamily Pluvianinae, part of the pratincole and courser family, Glareolidae.
