they are the auricles
The plural is atria. This can be used architecturally or with reference to chambers of the heart.
The term "atria" refers to the plural form of the word "atrium," which is a chamber of the heart that receives blood from the veins. The atria are the upper chambers of the heart, while the ventricles are the lower chambers responsible for pumping blood out of the heart.
The period when the atria are depolarizing is known as the P wave on an electrocardiogram (ECG). This represents the electrical activity as the impulse spreads through the atria, causing them to contract and pump blood into the ventricles.
The valves that prevent blood from flowing back into the atria are called atrioventricular valves.
The interatrial septum separates the right and left atria in the heart. This structure prevents mixing of oxygen-rich and oxygen-poor blood, ensuring efficient circulation within the heart.

Auricles
The small pouchlike extensions of the atria are called the atrial appendages or auricles. These structures help increase the overall volume of the atria, allowing for greater blood storage and more efficient cardiac function.

The Atria and Atrium
salamanders have a heart with one ventricle and two atria
Atria is the plural for of atrium. Not the other way around.
The heart only has one aorta. The aorta is the body's main artery that connects the heart to the body. There is the pulmonary artery but this one only takes blood away from the heart to the lungs. This one aorta carries blood around the body in a circle((from the heart to all organs and back again)) and has extensions that supply each organ and tissue and cell with oxygen and nutrients.
Atria (left and right)
The atria allow the blood to move from the body into the heart.
