I was actually going to use "posterieur" or "avillon" actually, but wanted to check with other members as I am going through a check-list

are you doing any research yourself ? what have you found so far, since it's so obvious?
EirTranslations (asker) Mar 27, 2007:
well i think its clear, its regarding a hawks middle fore toe (so its bird biology) not so many meanings there (in spanish we would call it a llave so perhaps similar in french but it is biology im after). Thanks!

Key has so many meanings! Context, please!

J'ai trouvé ça pour l'aigle.

Attention: postérieur est utilisé pour le doigt arrière.
