palmprint
Hand's unique stamp
A palmprint is the pattern of lines, ridges, and creases on the palm of the hand.
Like fingerprints, palmprints are unique to individuals and used for identification in forensics and biometric security systems: The detective lifted a palmprint from the windowsill.
Also spelled as two words: palm print.
