Definition
Having the nature or characteristics of leaves; leafy or leaf-like in form or appearance.
Etymology
From Latin 'foliosus,' combining 'folium' (leaf) with the adjectival suffix '-ous,' describing things that resemble or are made of leaves.
Kelly Says
Some seaweeds have folious forms so realistic that early scientists actually classified them as plants—the resemblance is so good that until microscopes revealed their true nature, no one knew kelp leaves were fake.
