Spanish term or phrase: Orejas
Hi everyone

I have a manual for auditing a store for market research purposes and I am having trouble with the term "oreja" which is given as an example of a type of structure which due to its shape may or may not be used as an exhibition. The phrase is:

Formas que para su armado pueden o no utilizar estructuras
Ejemplo: islas, orejas, estorbos

I assume "Islas" are "Islands" and "Estorbos" are "obstacles". But "orejas"? Any ideas?

Many thanks

English translation:shelf tags
Explanation:
This is the best term I could come up with. Try a Google images search for shelf tags and you'll see some examples. I also found shelf flags, but it only gets a fraction of the hits.
I hope this helps.
Good luck
