Definition
Plural of crypturus; a group of birds with very short or concealed tails, particularly applied to tinamous and other ground-dwelling species.
Etymology
From Greek 'kryptos' (hidden) + 'oura' (tail), naming birds whose distinctive feature is an obscured or vestigial tail.
Kelly Says
Tinamous are so bizarre that Darwin himself struggled to classify them—they're ancient birds from South America with hidden tails that survived millions of years virtually unchanged!
