About this species
The red knot or just knot (Calidris canutus) is a medium-sized shorebird which breeds in tundra and the Arctic Cordillera in the far north of Canada, Europe, and Russia. It is the type species of the genus Calidris. Six subspecies are recognised.
Their diet varies according to season; arthropods and larvae are the preferred food items at the breeding grounds, while various hard-shelled molluscs are consumed at other feeding sites at other times. North American breeders migrate to coastal areas in Europe and South America, while the Eurasian populations winter in Africa, Papua New Guinea, Australia, and New Zealand. This species forms enormous flocks when not breeding.

红腹滨鹬（学名：Calidris canutus）为鹬科滨鹬属的鸟类。是一种中等大小的滨鸟，繁殖于加拿大、欧洲和俄罗斯远北的苔原和北极山脉。它是滨鹬属中的大型成员，仅次于大滨鹬。目前已确认有六个亚种。该物种的模式产地在瑞典。
牠们的饮食随著季节变化而有所不同；在繁殖地主要以节肢动物和幼虫为食，而在其他觅食地则以各种硬壳软体动物为主。北美繁殖的红腹滨鹬会迁徙到欧洲和南美洲的沿海地区，而欧亚族群则在非洲、巴布亚新几内亚、澳洲和纽西兰过冬。此物种在非繁殖期会形成庞大的群体。
