Aramus paludigrus was created in 1997.

The Limpkin (common names: carrao, courlan, crying bird), Aramus guarauna, is a bird that looks like a large rail, but is skeletally closer to cranes. It is found in marshes with some trees or scrub in the Caribbean, Central America and southern Florida. Its name derives from the seeming limp of the Limpkin when it walks. The Limpkin is a somewhat large bird, 66 cm (26in) long, with a wingspan of about 100 cm (39in). Plumage is drab, olive-brown with a light-gray head and neck. White markings cover most feathers, especially on the wing and back. It has long legs and neck, and a long, yellowish bill. Adults are often confused with immature White Ibis.
