lobate
Having curved projections
Lobate means having lobes—rounded projections or divisions.
The term appears in biology describing leaves, organs, or organisms with such features: lobate leaves, a lobate liver.
In zoology, lobate feet have fleshy, paddle-like lobes along the toes, as seen in grebes and coots, aiding swimming without full webbing.
