Having a distinct head or head-like structure; bearing a head.
From capitate + -ed. The past-participle form used as an adjective to indicate the possession of a head-like feature.
Modern biology prefers 'capitate' without the -ed, but 'capitated' appears in older texts and some specialized literature. It's an example of how English sometimes has multiple valid forms for the same idea!
