Say three dozen, perhaps?

And who is considered THE expert on duckbills?

Nobody!  There certainly are several experts, but it is misleading (and
authoritarian) to say any one individual is THE expert on duckbills, or
ceratopsids, or tyrants, or whatever.

Some top duckbill folks, off the top of my head, in alphabetical order:
Brett-Surman, Drexler, Forster, Horner, Wagner, Weishampel
