The trend in recent years has been to rationalise the common names of the Charadriidae. For example, the large and very common Australian bird traditionally known as the 'spur-winged plover', is now the masked lapwing to avoid conflict with another bird with the same name; and the former 'sociable plover' is now the sociable lapwing.
The Egyptian plover (Pluvianus aegyptius), also known as the crocodile bird, is a wader, the only member of the genus Pluvianus. It occurs in a band across Sub-Saharan Africa from Senegal in the west to Ethiopia in the east and south to parts of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Plovers (/ ˈ p l ʌ v ər / PLUV-ər, [1] also US: / ˈ p l oʊ v ər / PLOH-vər) [2] are members of a widely distributed group of wading birds of subfamily Charadriinae. The term "plover" applies to all the members of the subfamily, [ 1 ] though only about half of them include it in their name.

Hence, either all members of Charadriidae, excluding Pluvialis are grouped in a single genus, Charadrius , or the genus is reduced to the Common ...
