The common sandpiper is a small Palearctic wader. It and its American sister species, the spotted sandpiper, make up the genus Actitis, and the two are parapatric, replacing each other geographically, though stray individuals of either species may settle with breeders of the other and hybridize. Hybridization has also been reported between the common sandpiper and the green sandpiper, a member of the closely related genus Tringa.
