hooknosed
Having curved proboscis
Hooknosed describes someone with a nose that curves prominently downward, resembling a hook.
The term is often derogatory, historically used as an antisemitic stereotype: the hooknosed merchant of old caricatures.
More neutrally, it can simply describe aquiline facial features: a hooknosed profile like a Roman senator.
