Lanthanide contraction is a term used in chemistry to describe the greater-than-expected decrease in ionic radii of the elements in the lanthanide series from atomic number 57, lanthanum, to 71, lutetium, which results in smaller than otherwise expected ionic radii for the subsequent elements starting with 72, hafnium.

The steady decreasing of atomic radii from left to right in lanthanoides is called Lanthonide Contraction.

Decrease in the atomic or ionic radii of lanthanoids due to ineffective shielding of d- and f- electrons is known as lanthanoid contraction
