Bravais lattices
There are two tetragonal Bravais lattices: the primitive tetragonal and the body-centered tetragonal.
The face-centered tetragonal lattice is equivalent to the body-centered tetragonal lattice with a smaller unit cell, while the base-centered tetragonal lattice is equivalent to the primitive tetragonal lattice with a smaller unit cell.

Crystal classes
The point groups that fall under this crystal system are listed below, followed by their representations in international notation, Schoenflies notation, orbifold notation, Coxeter notation and mineral examples.
In two dimensions
There is only one tetragonal Bravais lattice in two dimensions: the square lattice.
