text:
"Green-backed heron" is a collective term for certain herons. Small and compact among herons, these birds often feature green plumage – rare among the Ardeidae –, in particular on the back, wings and scapulars. They were formerly believed to make up a single species Butorides striata, but are now treated as three largely allopatric species: Striated heron, Butorides striata – Widespread throughout the Old World tropics and in South America
Lava heron, Butorides sundevalli – Endemic to the Galápa
