Medium-sized black-and-white shorebird with extremely long pink legs.

Cryptically plumaged, chunky, short-tailed snipe lacking white trailing edge to wing; has 24-28 tail feathers; the outer 6-8 pairs are very narrow ‘pins’.

Delicate, elegant sandpiper with long yellowish legs and needle-like bill. White supercilium and darker cap evident in most plumages. In flight, entire foot projects beyond tail and underwing coverts are mostly white.

Brown and white sandpiper with long red legs and basal half of bill. In flight, from above, white back, rump, barred tail and broad white trailing edge to inner wing. From below, underwing coverts unmarked white.

Very similar to Tibetan Sand-Plover, but slightly larger, longer-legged and with different proportions.

First recorded in Peninsular Malaysia in 2006, in Kedah, and has subsequently been observed in Perlis, Pulau Pinang, Perak and Selangor, suggesting recent colonisation from populations to the north. No records from Bornean Malaysia. Smaller than Barred Buttonquail, from which best distinguished by pink legs and paler overall colouration.
