The Eurasian teal, common teal, or Eurasian green-winged teal is a common and widespread duck that breeds in temperate Eurosiberia and migrates south in winter.

The American teal or green-winged teal is a common and widespread duck that breeds in the northern areas of North America except on the Aleutian Islands.

The scientific name is from Latin Anas, "duck" and carolinensis, "of Carolina".
