Taxonomy

The genus Tinamus was introduced in 1783 by the French naturalist Johann Hermann.[2] The type species was subsequently designated as the great tinamou.[3][4] Hermann based his name on "Les Tinamous" used by Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon in his Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux. The word "Tinamú" in the Carib language of French Guiana was used for the tinamous.[5][6]

The genus contains five species:[7][8]
