They are distantly related to the ratites (order Struthioniformes), that includes the rheas, emus and kiwis. *Great tinamou, ''Tinamus major'' *Little tinamou, ''Crypturellus soui'' *Slaty-breasted tinamou, ''Crypturellus boucardi'' *Thicket tinamou, ''Crypturellus cinnamomeus'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of birds of Nicaragua」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
