A Lenticular Galaxy is a galaxy that is in between that of a elliptical and a spiral galaxy.
They are disc galaxies that have used up all of their interstellar material and therefore have little, if any, star formation.
They can be difficult to distinguish between elliptical galaxies if viewed side on.
