Translation
Animals with crooked talons, all those birds which have a beak curving below their jaw: such a one as is the eagle, the hawk, the kestrel and the others which cannot drink.
Greek original · Adler’s text
Ἐπιρυγχίδα· ὅτι γαμψώνυχα ζῷα, ὅσα τῶν πτερωτῶν τὴν ἐπιρυγχίδα γεγάμψωκεν ὑπὸ τὴν γένυν, οἷος ἐστὶν ἀετός, ἱέραξ, κεγχρηῒς ἄλλα τε τὰ μὴ πίνοντα.
