<br/><br/> This study was performed on the quadratomandibular joint of ten heads of both ostrich (as a flightless bird) and flamingo (as a flying migratory bird). The gross morphological features of the articular surfaces and capsule associated with the joint in both species of birds were thoroughly investigated.The study revealed that the quadratomandibular joint was formed between the quadrate bone of the skull and the articular bone of the mandible without intervening inter-articular disc.
