Sheathbill

n. (Zool.) Either one of two species of birds composing the genus Chionis, and family Chionidae, native of the islands of the Antarctic seas. [ 1913 Webster ]

☞ They are related to the gulls and the plovers, but more nearly to the latter. The base of the bill is covered with a saddle-shaped horny sheath, and the toes are only slightly webbed. The plumage of both species is white. [ 1913 Webster ]
