The symbolism introduced by Carl Hermann has been revised and extended. A total of 402 lattice complexes are derived from 67 Weissenberg com- plexes. The Tables list site sets and lattice complexes in standard and alternate representations. They answer the following questions: What are the co-ordinates of the points in a given lattice complex? In which space groups can a given lattice complex occur? What are the lattice complexes that can occur in a given space group? The higher the symmetry of the crystal structures is, the more useful the lattice- complex approach should be on the road to the ultimate goal of their classification.
