General Information
Term wing ID (Ontology) FBbt:00004729 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition A flight organ of the adult external thorax that is derived from a dorsal mesothoracic disc.
CommentThis term considers the wing blade, margin and hinge as being part of the wing. Frequently, the term 'wing' is used by authors to refer to 'wing blade'. Please consider using wing blade terms instead when appropriate - https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5948-3092.
