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.

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.

Fossilia
[recensere | fontem recensere]- †R. fossilis Moreno & Mercerat 1891
- †R. mesopotamica (Agnolín & Noriega 2012) [Pterocnemia mesopotamica Agnolín & Noriega 2012]

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.
