Species typica

Struthio americanus Linnaeus, 1758

Rhea est genus magnarum avium sine volatu familiae Rheidarum ordinis Rheiformium. Carina in sterno caret. In America Australi invenitur, Struthionis cameli et Dromaii novaehollandiae remote cognata. Plurimi taxinomiae eruditi duas species exstantis agnoscunt, quae sunt Rhea americana et Rhea pennata. Index Ruber IUCN Rheam tarapacensem tertiam speciem agnoscit; qui index rheas americanam et tarapacensem paene periclitatas in earum patriis aestimat, cum rhea pennata iam vigeat. Praeterea, ferus rhearum americanarum grex in Germania crescere videtur.

Etymologia

Nomen rhea, primum anno 1752 a Paulo Möhring propositum, ex Rhea, una ex Titanibus in mythologia Graeca, appellatur, cuius nomen, in lingua Graeca ῾Ρέα, ab ἔρα 'solo' deduci putatur, aptum quia haec avis volatu caret atque super solum habitat.

Taxinomia et systematica

Genus Rhea a Maturino Iacobo Brisson, zoologo Francico, anno 1760 introductum est, Rhea americana typo generis.^[1]^[2]

Species exstantes

Generi sunt duae species exstantes et octo subspecies.^[3]

	Rhea americana (Linnaeus, 1758)	R. a. americana (Linnaeus, 1758), in terris feris (cerrados) et caatinga Brasiliae mediae et orientalis. R. a. intermedia Rothschild & Chubb 1914, rhea intermedia in Brasilia australi et orientali in Rivo Magno Australi et Uraquaria. R. a. nobilis Brodkorb 1939, Paraquaria, ad orientem fluminis Paraquaii. R. a. araneipes Brodkorb 1938, chaco Paraquariae ad Boliviam et Matogrossensem civitatem Brasiliae.

	Rhea pennata d'Orbigny 1834	R. p. garleppi (Chubb 1913), terra graminea Puna / Garlepp's rhea Peruviae australis et orientalis, Boliviae australis et occidentalis, et Argentinae septentrionalis et occidentalis. In Rheam tarapacensem a The International Union for Conservation of Nature digeritur. R. p. tarapacensis (Chubb 1913), Tarapacá Rhea Tsiliae septentrionalis ab Atacama ad Tarapacá. Separata species ab IUCN habetur.^[4] R. p. pennata d'Orbigny 1834, steppae Patagonianae in Argentina australi et Tsilia australi.	Altiplano et Patagonia in America Australi.

Fossilia

†R. fossilis Moreno & Mercerat 1891
†R. mesopotamica (Agnolín & Noriega 2012) [Pterocnemia mesopotamica Agnolín & Noriega 2012]
†R. pampeana Moreno & Mercerat 1891
†R. subpampeana Moreno & Mercerat 1891

Rhea pennata non semper in genus Rheam digerebatur. Die 7 Augusti 2008, American Ornithologists' Union, ultimus adversarius, coniunctionem generum Rheae et Pterocnemiae sanxit, ut solum genus Rhea maneret.^[5] Rhea nana, alia species tertia, a Ricardo Lydekker anno 1894 descripta est secundum unum ovum in Patagonia inventum,^[6] sed eruditi hanc speciem nomen falsum hodie considerantur.
