Eudromia elegans : ウィキペディア英語版 | Elegant crested tinamou
The elegant crested tinamou or martineta tinamou (''Eudromia elegans'') is a medium-sized tinamou that can be found in southern Chile and Argentina〔 in shrubland.〔BirdLife International (2008)〕 ==Etymology== ''Eudromia'' comes from two Greek words, ''eu'' meaning well or nicely, and ''dromos'' meaning a running escape. These definitions together mean, nice running escape, which refers to their habit of escaping predators by running. Finally, ''elegans'' means neat or elegant, and ''martinete'' is Spanish for night heron because its elegant crest is reminiscent of a night heron's crest.〔Gotch, A. F. (1995)〕
