Nycticorax is a genus of night herons. The name Nycticorax means `night raven` and derives from the Ancient Greek nuktos `night` and korax, `raven`. It refers to the largely nocturnal feeding habits of this group of birds, and the croaking crow-like call of the best known species, the black-crowned night heron. |
