What counts as an 'unarmed strike?'

d20SRD is remarkably mum on this.

Does this mean that all melee natural weapons are effectively unarmed strikes?

I have no idea where you would get that idea from... the text isn't even tangentially related.

No. Melee natural weapons are... melee natural weapons.
Magic is for weaklings.

The Grappling Rules seem to treat them as different.

Quote
Attack Your Opponent
You can make an attack with an unarmed strike, natural weapon, or light weapon against another character you are grappling. You take a -4 penalty on such attacks.
