Shaped like a fan; having a fan-like form with radiating parts.
From Latin flabellatus, derived from flabellum (fan); used in botany and zoology to describe fan-shaped structures.
In biology, flabellate is the technical term for that unmistakable fan shape you see in certain leaves, corals, and insects, and once you learn it, you start noticing fan-shaped things everywhere in nature.
