Geology. Now historical.

Metamorphism in which there is mechanical or physical change, as in slaty cleavage.

1889 A. Irving Metamorphism of Rock 5 Slaty cleavage and its concomitant phenomena..will be considered under the term Metataxis. Footn. This term is preferred to the cognate term Metastasis (Bonney).

1904 C. R. Van Hise Treat. Metamorphism (U.S. Geol. Surv.) i. 39 A classification of metamorphism into paramorphism, metatrophy, and metataxis, restricting the terms to atomic, molecular, and mechanical changes, respectively, as proposed by A. Irving, is wholly impracticable.

1983 S. I. Tomkeieff et al. Dict. Petrol. 359/1 Metataxis, changes of orientation of the constituents of the rock mass, of which the phenomenon of slaty cleavage may be taken as a typical instance.
