salient
Definitions
(Adjective) Having a quality that thrusts itself into attentionUsage: Her intelligence is her most salient trait.
(Adjective) Relevant. (I think the dominant view is "important" or "most relevant" - but does important/most relevant consist of two items or eight? It's certainly not 750, because the last 700, while not necessarily irrelevant, are almost certainly inconsequential.)
(Adjective) conspicuous; easily noticeable
