Hypertext Webster Gateway: "kamichi"
From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) (web1913)
Kamichi \Ka"mi*chi\, n. (Zo["o]l.)
A curious South American bird ({Anhima, or Palamedea,
cornuta}), often domesticated by the natives and kept with
poultry, which it defends against birds of prey. It has a
long, slender, hornlike ornament on its head, and two sharp
spurs on each wing. Although its beak, feet, and legs
resemble those of gallinaceous birds, it is related in
anatomical characters to the ducks and geese ({Anseres}).
Called also {horned screamer}. The name is sometimes applied
also to the chaja. See {Chaja}, and {Screamer}.
