Wikipedia Overview
Aegypius is a genus of Old World vultures found in the subfamily Aegypiinae. Of the three species in the genus, only the cinereous vulture is extant. The cinereous vulture is a creature that is hard to find as it is "a near threatened raptor that occurs in isolated populations across its range" (Çakmak). There were studies being conducted on the cinereous vulture and it indicates "that the Turkish birds hold, along with those from the Caucasus, an intermediate position between European and North Asian (Mongolian) lineages" (Çakmak). The genus name Aegypius is a Greek word (αἰγυπιός) for 'vulture', or a bird not unlike one; Aelian describes the aegypius as "halfway between a vulture (gyps) and an eagle". Some authorities think this a good description of a lammergeier; others do not. Aegypius is the eponym of the species, whatever it was.
