WHAT DOES STERNA MEAN IN ENGLISH?

sterna

Sterna

Sterna is a genus of terns in the bird family Sternidae. It used to encompass most "white" terns indiscriminately, but mtDNA sequence comparisons have recently determined that this arrangement is paraphyletic. It is now restricted to the typical large white terns occurring near-globally in coastal regions.
