Most insects have wings. Which is the other animal phylum that contains creatures with analogous organs?

1 Answer

Answer :

Besides the phylum Arthropoda another animal phylum with flying creatures is the chordate phylum, birds and chiropterans mammals (bats) have wings. In the past some reptiles that possibly originated the aves had wings too. There are also amphibians and fishes that jump high exploring the aerial environment.
