Rictal bristle

中文百科

喙 Beak

(重定向自Rictal bristle)
秃鹰与牠的黑色鸟喙。

是鸟类上下颌包被的硬角质鞘,起到哺乳动物唇和齿的作用。喙的主要功能是取食和梳理羽毛。某些恐龙也有类似的构造,不过不一定与鸟类同源。

达尔文正是研究了加拉帕戈斯群岛雀类的喙的变化从而提出了进化论的思想。喙的形态由于鸟类取食方式不同而有很大变异。鸟的啄可大致分为以下各类:

另外,个别的鸟啄也有不同的独特形态,如交嘴雀的喙上下无法对齐是交叉的,这样可以方便交嘴雀从鲜松果中取出松子;剪嘴鸥的下喙比上喙大而长,它贴近水面飞行时,可以用下喙在水中捞取食物;而红鹳的上喙隆起而庞大,正是为了低头捞取水中的藻类。
