Having a lattice-like or net-like pattern or structure, resembling a grating or mesh.
From Latin 'clathrus' (lattice, grating) plus '-oid' (resembling), used in biology and botany to describe woven or interlaced structures.
Imagine looking at something and seeing it's built like a lattice fence or a piece of window screening—that's clathroid, and you see it in everything from certain shells to cloud formations.
