- Igneous rocks sometimes called magmatic rocks are formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. The magma can be derived from partial melts of existing rocks in either the earth's mantle or crust. ... Those in between are termed as intermediate (hypabyssal) rocks.

Answer:
A subvolcanic rock, also known as a hypabyssal rock, is an intrusive igneous rock that is emplaced at depths less than 2 km within the crust, and has intermediate grain size and often porphyritic texture between that of volcanic rocks and plutonic rocks. Subvolcanic rocks include diabase and porphyry.
