In UK, the generic term "JCB" is understood very widely as a catch-all for the sort of machines you've described. Incidently, John C Bamford, the man after whom they are named, died this week-end, aged 80.

Excavation tools attached to tractors are called "back-hoes" among the farming fraternity over here, and I have heard the term used by civil engineering workers, occasionally.
