''[[Interparticle porosity]]''<ref name=pt06r79 /> is defined as that pore space located between grains ([[intergranular porosity]]) or between crystals ([[intercrystalline porosity]]), but which is not significantly larger than the grains or crystals. ''[[Vugular porosity|Vuggy porosity]]'' is defined as pore space larger than or within rock particles. Isolated [[vug]]s are called ''[[separate vug]]s'', while vugs that form a connected pore system on a reservoir scale are called ''[[touching vug]]s''.
