The solitary tinamou (''Tinamus solitarius'') is a species of paleognath ground bird. This species is native to Atlantic forest of eastern Brazil. ==Taxonomy== All tinamou are from the family Tinamidae, and in the larger scheme are also ratites. Unlike other ratites, tinamous can fly, although in general, they are not strong fliers. All ratites evolved from prehistoric flying birds, and tinamous are the closest living relative of these birds.〔Davies, S. J. J. F. (2003)〕 Formerly, this bird was divided into two subspecies: ''T. s. pernambucensis'' in north-east Brazil (Pernambuco and Alagoas), and ''T. s. solitarius'' found in south-east Paraguay and extreme north-east Argentina. The former, however, turned out to be not distinct from the nominate but rather individual birds that showed a particular color morph which is now known to also occur elsewhere.〔Raposo do Amaral & Silveira (2004)〕 Notably, the hue of the back varies between olive and rusty, and the intensity of the lower neck's plumage color also varies. The black barring in these areas is more or less strong. ''pernambucensis'' refers to yellower birds with much barring, especially on the neck.〔
