Plover Birds on the beach
It measures between 27 and 31 centimeters in length, its wingspan is between 71 and 83 centimeters, and its weight is between 165 and 395 grams.\nQuite similar to its congener batuiruçu, it differs in its resting plumage due to the less evident white stripe or superciliary line with duller tones, in addition to having a slightly thicker beak. In flight, a large black spot stands out under the wings, in the axillae. In post- and pre-nuptial plumage, males exhibit blackish underparts, like their congener, but the back is mottled in blackish tones without any yellow, and the belly is white.
