Wednesday's word is...

...prognathous.

being or having a jaw and typically a lower jaw that projects forward especially to an unusual degree

--

I found it in Midnight at Malabar House:

A short, plump man in his forties, balding, bespectacled and with a prognathous jaw that gave him a permanently disgruntled look.

Like Charles II.

And good riddance. To judge by Austrian auto racer Archduke Ferdinand Habsburg-Lothringen (b.1997), outbreeding seems to have been succeeding.
