Low resolution view of lineae on Europa

Linea /ˈlɪnə/ (plural: lineae /ˈlɪnɪ/) is Latin for 'line'.[1] In planetary geology it is used to refer to any long markings, dark or bright, on a planet or moon's surface. The planet Venus and Jupiter's moon Europa have numerous lineae; Saturn's moon Rhea and Pluto have several.[2][3]
