Grus is a genus of large birds in the crane family.. The genus Grus was erected by the French zoologist Mathurin Jacques Brisson in 1760. [1] The name Grus is the Latin word for "crane". [2]
The common crane (Grus grus), also known as the Eurasian crane, is a bird of the family Gruidae, the cranes.A medium-sized species, it is the only crane commonly found in Europe besides the demoiselle crane (Grus virgo) and the Siberian crane (Leucogeranus leucogeranus) that only are regular in the far eastern part of the continent.
Of the four crane genera, Balearica (two species) is restricted to Africa, and Leucogeranus (one species) is restricted to Asia; the other two genera, Grus (including Anthropoides and Bugeranus) and Antigone, are both widespread. [5] [1] Many species of cranes are dependent on wetlands and grasslands, and most species nest in shallow wetlands.
