The Common Sandpiper Actitis hypoleucos is a small Palearctic wader. This bird and its American sister species, the Spotted Sandpiper A. macularia, make up the genus Actitis. They are parapatric and replace each other geographically; stray birds of either species may settle down with breeders of the other and hybridize. Hybridization has also been reported between the Common Sandpiper and the Green Sandpiper, a basal species of the closely related shank genus Tringa. |
