The Hook Bill duck ({{lang-it|Anatra Curvirostra}}[1] or Anatra Becco Curvo[1], {{lang-nl|Kromsnaveleend}}[2] or Noord-Hollandse Krombekeend[3]) is a breed of domestic duck originating in Asia (probably India,[4] as a likely relative of the Indian Runner duck[5]) but spread in the Netherlands.[6] The name refers to the bird's distinctive Roman nosed beak. The Hook Bill is an old breed that can be traced back to the 17th century. In the Netherlands, it was traditionally raised alongside canals.

Its worldwide population in captivity is estimated to be no more than 400 individuals.[3][6] It's considered an endangered duck breed.[7]

Today, it is primarily raised for exhibition purposes, and is a seasonal egg layer of blue eggs. It's a light-weight bird, weighing between 5.5 and 6.5 pounds (2.3 to 2.8 kilos). The Hook Bill appears in several varieties: the Dusky (or Dark) is in shades of gray-brown. The White-Bibbed version is similar to the Dusky, but has a large patch of white on the front and primary feathers. The last is an entirely white variety.[8] Exported to North America in 2000, it has not yet been admitted to the American Poultry Association's Standard of Perfection.
