Harpyje pralesní (Harpia harpyja, Linné 1758) je po kondorovi andském druhým největším dravcem Jižní Ameriky, může mít rozpětí křídel až dva metry a dosáhnout hmotnosti 9 kilogramů. Samec je výrazně menší než samice. Má masivní zobák a mohutné silné nohy opatřené až 13 cm dlouhými drápy. Obě pohlaví jsou zbarvena stejně – hřbet je břidlicově černý, hlava a krk šedé, břicho bílé. Nohy jsou žluté. Ptáci mají v dospělosti na hlavě vztyčitelnou dvojitou chocholku. Harpyje má široká zaoblená křídla a dlouhý ocas, což jí umožňuje manévrovat mezi stromy.
