tetarto-|tɪˈtɑːtəʊ|
combining form of Gr. τέταρτος fourth (cf. tetra-), in scientific terms belonging chiefly to crystallography. teˌtartoˈhedral a. [Gr. ἕδρα base], having one fourth of the number of faces required by the highest or holohedral degree of symmetry belonging to its system; hence teˌtartoˈhedrally adv., in a tetartohedral manner. teˌtartoˈhedric, -ˈhedrical adjs., = tetartohedral. teˌtartoˈhedrism, the property or quality of crystallizing in tetartohedral forms; the condition in which a crystal symmetrically develops only one fourth of the number of planes demanded by holohedral symmetry. teˌtartoˈhedron, a tetartohedral crystal. teˌtartoˈhedry, = tetartohedrism. teˌtartoheˈxagonal a., having one quarter of the number of normals belonging to the hexagonal system. teˌtartoprisˈmatic a., teˌtartoˈpyramid: see quots. teˌtartosyˈmmetric, -syˈmmetrical adjs.: see quot. teˌtartoˈsymmetry, a variety of merosymmetry, in which only one fourth of the faces of the holosymmetrical form are retained. teˌtartosysteˈmatic a., said of a form in which only one fourth of the origin-planes are extant.
