Triangulum Minus (Latin for the Smaller Triangle) was a constellation created by Johannes Hevelius. Its name is sometimes wrongly written as Triangulum Minor. It was formed from the southern parts of his Triangula (plural form of Triangulum), alongside Triangulum Majus, but is no longer in use. The triangle was defined by the fifth-magnitude stars ι Trianguli (6 Tri), 10 Trianguli, and 12 Trianguli.{{cite web | last = Kaler | first = James B. | title = 6 Trianguli | work = Stars | date = 5 January 2006 | url = http://stars.astro.illinois.edu/sow/6tri.html | accessdate = 26 February 2014}}
