Having wings or wing-like structures; possessing functional wings or wing-like appendages.
From Latin aptatus, the past participle of aptare (to fit or adapt), combined with the sense of 'having wings.' The term is used in entomology and zoology to describe winged forms of insects or animals.
When an insect molts and finally gets its wings, it's called 'aptate'—it's like graduating from coach to first class in the insect world!
