Plural of charadrius; a group of plovers or related shorebirds.
Latin plural of Charadrius, a genus name for plovers. From Medieval Latin charadrius, possibly from Greek charadrios (describing a type of bird), though the etymology is uncertain.
Charadrii is the fancy scientific plural of plovers—those speedy little shorebirds that run in sudden bursts and then freeze perfectly still on the beach, making them look like pebbles.
