Тинамуи[2] (лат. Tinamiformes) су ред птица који садржи једну истоимену породицу (лат. Tinamidae) са две потпородице. Ове птице сврставају се у надред Paleognathae. Живе на подручју Јужне и Средње Америке. Упркос томе што по свом изгледу подсећају на кокошке, према данашњим схватањима сматра се да су им нојеви најближи рођаци.
