A lateral illustration of a flightless seabird shows the black dorsum, white ventrum, orange bill and feet, and a white eye patch, representing the external morphology of a penguin. The organism is Pygoscelis papua (gentoo penguin), an avian species within class Aves and order Sphenisciformes. In ornithology and comparative anatomy, this figure highlights adaptations for aquatic locomotion: flipper-like wings on the thoracic region for underwater propulsion and dense plumage of the integumentary system for thermal insulation.
