Hi all, I've thought a bit about the issue of beaks. Let's take e.g. _Velociraptor_: the shape of the snout and the dentary seems to me a bit odd to have had a rhamphotheca: http://www.oucom.ohiou.edu/dbms-witmer/images/Velociraptor02.JPG Does anyone know a bird (Neornithes) with jaws having such a shape?
