El nombre "Urutau" según Montoya significa "ave nocturna" y también "gavilocho ave de rapiña".

📜 CfP: Minimal Computing and the Middle Ages, IMC2026, Leeds (UK) The session will explore the intersection of #minimalcomputing and #medieval studies for sustainable, accessible, and ethical approaches to #digital scholarship in a time of limited resources. 📅Deadline: 23:59 BST, 10/09/25

According to Montoya, the name ‘Urutau’ means ‘night bird’ and also ‘hawk bird of prey.’ Cadogan records that the Urutau (Nyctibius griseus cornutus) is, in the mythical texts of the Tavyterã and Chiripa, the sister of the Sun and Moon Twins.
