A genus of birds in the rail family, particularly the corncrake, known for their distinctive loud calls.
From Latin 'crex,' which is an onomatopoeia imitating the harsh sound these birds make. The word directly mimics their call.
The corncrake's call is so loud and distinctive that it can be heard from over a mile away, and its Latin name 'crex crex' is a perfect example of onomatopoeia in scientific naming.
