Fladrif (pron. "Fladriv") was the Sindarin name of the Ent known as 'Skinbark'; with Finglas and Fangorn himself, one of the last three Ents to walk beneath the boughs of Fangorn Forest.

Etymology

The word seems to be composed by the otherwise unattested words *flad and *rîf

Note that in Sindarin, final -f represents the /v/ sound.
