locomotor organ

Of the various translations listed at linguee.com (see web reference below), I think locomotor organ is particularly good. The term relates to the locomotor system, also known as the musculoskeletal system.
Example sentence:

Springtails are minute, wingless insects that get their name from the fact that they have an unusual locomotor organ.
