The planes g% g3, &c., on the other hand, are equiva-lent to Dm. A value following a letter, invariably refers tothe relative length of the shorter horizontal axis compared tothat of the longer one as unity. Naumanns symbols are, for D-, oo Pn; and for Dm, ccPn. The monaxial planes M and L form the vertical faces ofrectangular prisms; whilst the biaxial pyramidal planes, .rAand #E, produce rectangular octahedrons. Monoclinic Planes:—Basal planes, P. Back and front prismatic planes, and left prismatic planes, L. Diaxial Prismatic Planes:— Ordinary oblique rhombic prisms,D, D-, Dm. Dia
