dropdown menu
Expandable selection list
A dropdown menu is an interface element that reveals a list of options when clicked or hovered over, then collapses when a selection is made.
The name describes the visual behavior—options appear to drop down from the triggering element.
Dropdown menus conserve screen space by hiding choices until needed: Select your country from the dropdown menu.
