Buteo Late Pliocene/Early Pleistocene may also have been a "Buteo". If this is so, the bird can be expected to aid in untangling the complicated evolutionary history of the common buzzard group. The prehistoric species ""Aquila" danana", "Buteogallus fragilis" (Fragile eagle), and "Spizaetus grinnelli" were at one time also placed in "Buteo". Buteo Buteo is a genus of medium to fairly large, wide-ranging raptors with a robust body and broad wings.

Nests are generally located in trees, which are generally selected based on large sizes and inaccessibility to climbing predators rather than by species. Most "Buteo"s breed in stable pairs, which may mate for life
