Lectavis bretincola, a late Cretaceous member of the Enantiornithes from Argentina, chows down on a captured hermit crab.

The only fossils of this species found so far are legs, but they were long and relatively sturdy, suggesting the bird had a similar size and lifestyle to medium-sized wading birds like curlews. They lived in and around freshwater or brackish lakes and river deltas and possibly feasted on crustaceans and other invertebrates found in those habitats.
