The
Greater White-fronted Goose (
Anser albifrons) is a goose species closely related to the smaller Lesser White-fronted Goose (
A. erythropus). In Europe it has been known as simply "
White-fronted Goose"; in North America it is known as the
Greater White-fronted Goose (or "Greater Whitefront"), and this name is also increasingly adopted internationally. In Northern and Central North America, it is colloquially called
"Specklebelly" due to the salt-and-pepper appearance of the underside.
