lamellas
Stacked parallel sheets
Lamellas is the plural of lamella, a thin plate, scale, or membrane-like structure.
The term appears most often in biology and anatomy, describing the gill plates of mushrooms, the layered structure of bone tissue, or the thin membranes in chloroplasts: The lamellas of the gill were damaged by pollution.
Also pluralized as lamellae.
