Globally, the species that is most commonly called a spurwing plover is vanellus spinosus, which is an African species. However, quite a few vanellus species have carpal spurs (on the bend of the wing), so get called spurwinged plover locally. In Australia, the local plover is vanellus miles, which is known as spurwinged there - globally it is usually known as the masked or Asian wattled plover.
