Coracoids
From EvoWiki
Coracoids are ventral bones of the pectoral girdle in birds and reptiles, where in the former the coracoid is retroverted, straplike, and articulates via a hinge joint with the sternum. In mammals, the coracoid is a hook-like structure of the scapula, called the coracoid process.
