I would assume you mean the tricuspid valve in the heart? Most other blood vessel valves are described as "semi-lunar", meaning they look like a half-moon, have two parts and when they close they completely block the vessel they're in. The tricuspid valve in the heart is composed of three pieces, so they would not be shaped like a half-moon.
