The greater prairie chicken or pinnated grouse (Tympanuchus cupido), sometimes called a boomer, is a large bird in the grouse family. One of the most famous aspects of these creatures is the mating ritual called booming. There are three subspecies;
- The heath hen, Tympanuchus cupido cupido, which was historically found along the Atlantic coast, is extinct. It was possibly a distinct species; in this case the two other forms would be T. pinnatus pinnatus and T. p. attwateri.
- Attwater's prairie chicken, Tympanuchus cupido attwateri is endangered and restricted to coastal Texas.
- The greater prairie chicken, Tympanuchus cupido pinnatus, is now restricted to a small section of its former range.
