Major new research [ citation needed ] into eagle taxonomy suggests that the important genera Aquila and Hieraaetus are not composed of nearest relatives, and it is likely that a reclassification of these genera will soon take place, with some species being moved to Lophaetus or Ictinaetus.
Greater Spotted Eagle, Aquila clanga and Lesser Spotted Eagle, Aquila pomarina should be moved either to join Long-crested Eagle, Lophaetus occipitalis or, perhaps better, all three of these species should move to Ictinaetus with the Black Eagle, Ictinaetus malayensis.
The Latin aquila may derive from the word "aquilus," meaning dark colored, swarthy, flish, as a description of the eagle's plumage, or from "Aquilo," the Latin version of Greek Boreas, or north wind.

Importantly, a unique and threatened eastern population of golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) migrates along a narrow band of ridges in western and central PA. Because golden eagles are top predators and indicators of ecosystem health, they are a nearly ideal "umbrella" species for conservation.
The goal of this research is to use global positioning system (GPS) telemetry to identify where and how these eagles migrate and roost as they travel from their breeding grounds in eastern Canada, through the Appalachian Mountains.

Interestingly, during Israeli observations Levant Sparrowhawks Accipter brevipes were not seen to cross Wadi Araba or the Gulf of Aqaba and it is postulated that this was due to the more westerly breeding range of this species (Shirihai and Yekutiel 1991, Shirihai and Christie 1992).
Between 27 March and 8 April, 22 Black Kit es, 3931 Steppe Buzzards, 21 Spotted Aquila clanga or Lesser Spotted Eagle and 175 Steppe Eagles were counted (Dr R. Oades pers.
North of Aqaba, along the southern part of the rift margin, large numbers of raptors were observed at Fidan, Wadi Dana and Petra, confirming the importance of this area for raptor passage.
