In the first case, the crystal class of the space group is maintained during the transition from the space group to the subgroup.

	Subgroups of space groups are often used to describe the structures of a family of compounds which are closely related. They can also describe a sequence of different phases of a single compound resulting from temperature or pressure changes.
