Morfología externa (Figura 1): Cuerpo del ejemplar ovalado y plano, dorso del manto color café-bronce hacia la parte central; parte anterior del mismo con coloración café oscura y café-bronce claro hacia los bordes. El manto presenta grandes manchas oscuras cerca al borde y en el centro, sin un patrón aparente (Figura 1 A-C). Todo el notum del ejemplar, salvo el área inmediatamente cercana a los rinóforos está cubierto por tubérculos más o menos redondeados, de tamaño variable, siendo mayores aquellos en la porción dorsal central (Figura 1A). A lo largo del borde del manto, los tubérculos disminuyen y se unen de manera compacta. La mayoría de tubérculos presenta un anillo blanco en la base, seguido de una aureola intermedia de color café claro, terminando en una punta café oscura al final de cada uno (Figura 1 J). El plumón branquial se divide en seis hojas branquiales tripinadas plumosas de color café oscuro. La parte anterior del plumón y la parte posterior plumosa son de color café claro

gill plumes
Identification
This nudibranch can grow to 15 cm long. While it is often lemon-yellow, it can also be brighter and more orangey, or lighter — sometimes almost white. It is rounded to elongated in shape, with a roughened texture similar to a lemon. The animal has a varying amount of black spots and blotches on or between the tubercles (small bumps) that roughen its body. The gill plumes (tufts at the back of the body) and rhinophores (horn-like structures) vary in colour from yellow to orange.

The Sea Lemon Montereina nobilis, is a bright yellow nudibranch with a white gill-plume, sometimes spotted with light brown or orange. They have background splotches of dark brown or black, and the knoblike tubercle that cover the back are yellow.

I’ve also seen gill leaves but I think gill plumes sounds better.

The rhinophores are totally white, both the laminar portion (with 20-25 tight lamellae) and the basal portion (without lamellae). The rhinophoric sheath is slightly elevated and also has conical tubercles; its upper edge has irregular tubercles, some coloured dark brown. The gill is composed of up to 8 white gill leaves with the central axis coloured light brown. The gill sheath is also tuberculate. Gill leaves are fully retractable. The foot and the underside of the mantle are white. The foot is large and protrudes slightly below the mantle at the posterior zone, forming something like a rounded tail. The internal organs can give a soft pink hue to the central portion of the foot. The mouth has a pair of fine oral palps.

: Hi Helena; that is an interesting option but I think the original refers more specifically to layers -or more precisely to folds- within the pulmonar tissue of a branchiostegal lung.//Perdón! Leí pulmón en vez de plumón branquial en el texto original!!!

Hi, Chema. It would be much easier if we knew what the living being was. I thought the text described a sea slug, not a crab ;-) // That's understandable, especially when we have no idea what's being described.

branchiostegal folds
The branchiostegal (gill) tissue is supported by folds or other mechanisms to increase surface area and are of a similar tissue to that normally found in gills.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branchiostegal_lung
I believe pulmón branquial conveys the idea of branchiostegal lung. From there, hojas would refer to folds; branchiostegal folds (I have not found equivalent examples for example refering to gill or branchial folds or "layers").
It would help if you could confirm we are talking about hermit (i.e. coconut) crabs or the like.

gill lamellae
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_gill
Fish gills are organs that allow fish to breathe underwater.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamella_(surface_anatomy)
In fish gills there are two types of lamellae, primary and secondary. The primary gill lamellae come out of the interbranchial septum at the fish gill filament to increase the contact area between the water and the blood capillaries that lie in the fish gill filaments. The secondary gill lamellae are small lamellae that come out of the primary ones and are used to further increase the contact area. Both types of lamellae are used to increase the amount of oxygen intake of the blood. Both types of lamellae contain huge amounts of capillaries and are the sites where the exchange of oxygen from the water and carbon dioxide from the blood occurs.

Most dorid nudibranch sea slugs possess a feather-like plume [gills] on their backs,
