Totanus is a generic name previously applied to various waders or shorebirds, now subsumed within Tringa. Created by Johann Matthäus Bechstein, it derives from the species name for the common redshank, described by Carl Linnaeus in his landmark 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae as Scolopax totanus, from totano, the Italian name for the bird. Birds once placed in the genus include: Common redshank, now Tringa totanus
Greater yellowlegs, now Tringa melanoleuca
Lesser yellowlegs, now Tringa flav
