     [1913 Webster]

  Turkey \Tur"key\, n.; pl. Turkeys. [So called because it was
     formerly erroneously believed that it came originally from
     Turkey: cf. F. Turquie Turkey. See Turk.] (Zo["o]l.)
     Any large American gallinaceous bird belonging to the genus
     Meleagris, especially the North American wild turkey
     ({Meleagris gallopavo), and the domestic turkey, which was

     domesticated by the Indians long before the discovery of
     America.

     Note: The Mexican wild turkey is now considered a variety of
           the northern species (var. Mexicana). Its tall feathers
           and coverts are tipped with white instead of brownish
           chestnut, and its flesh is white. The Central American,
           or ocellated, turkey ({Meleagris ocellata) is more
           elegantly colored than the common species. See under
           Ocellated. The Australian, or native, turkey is a
           bustard ({Choriotis australis). See under Native.
